Is a fringe player who may look for opportunities elsewhere. Has finals experience and when fit is a class player. Is exactly the type Roos would want.

I haven't heard much about him this year.

Has he been injured?

    We don't want another fringe player! I think we have/ have had enough of those!

    Wouldn't be a fringe player for us imo, would be another mature body, some good kicking skills and brings the experience of playing in a very good side and costs nothing and has a few years left.

    The question in the OP about him being injured is the most relevant and the answer is yes.

    A high draft pick, Ellis has been a disappointment but his injury woes have meant that his career has stalled and he needs a change of scenery.

    Subject to get an "all clear" on his fitness and him not costing an arm and a leg, I would say a definite yes.

    BTW, on the subject of fitness, rumour has it that Daisy Thomas failed his fitness test at Carlton and isn't going to join MM after all.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
