Pridham, a rover, made his way into the Essendon team from East Sandringham. He started out in the thirds and won a Gardiner Medal in 1957 for his performances in the league seconds. That year he made his first and only senior appearance, playing in Essendon's 27-point loss to Richmond at Punt Road Oval.[3]
