dazzledavey36 56,334 Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 JAMIE ELLIOTT (COLL) Has put off talks with Collingwood until season’s end as the club manages a tight salary cap. Melbourne has come hard and could land the sharpshooter for nothing under free agency rules. He’d be a handy third banana next to Sam Weideman and Tom McDonald. Elliott would have to financially sacrifice to stay at the Pies. 2 Quote

binman 44,824 Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) Getting Tomlinson and Elliot as free agents and so not having to give up any picks would be massive. Both are in the right age range too. And both have finals experience. Edited September 17, 2019 by binman 6 1 Quote
Dr.D 1,771 Posted September 17, 2019 Posted September 17, 2019 tomlinson is not a good player. sure he fits the age profile but he is very hesitant with the ball in hand. and doesn't offer much in terms of rebound. so I dont see how he helps us. 1 Quote
TRIGON 4,821 Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 (edited) Big Maxie was on the news, or what passes for it on Channel 7 (don't judge me, I was just walking past the TV at that point in time) and talking up Jamie Elliot's ability. Are we close? Edited September 20, 2019 by TRIGON 1 Quote

Both are in the right age range too. And both have finals experience. Hardly massive when Tomlinson is a C+ player at best and is going to take 4 years at decent money out of TPP. Agree with Lyon, save the Tomlinson money and try to land an A Grader. FCS Dees, at least have a crack at a genuine A Grader. 3 Quote

samcantstandya 1,079 Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 Our chances of luring Elliott just improved. I reckon had they won & haven forbid won the premiership he def wouldn't consider coming to the Dees, but now maybe..... Quote

Thought he played very well, especially early. We will also be able to guarantee he will avoid the heart-ache of losing another close PF, as we tend to make sure the result is beyond doubt prior to half-time. Plus he'll probably have most of his September's free too (no doubt a big lure). 3 Quote

Superunknown 4,246 Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 Feeling bullish for 2020 . Triton will need a lot of dees and lagwagon and haute savoie stickers. It will be confusing for most rugby league loving lismorians Quote
bobby1554 1,275 Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 13 disposals today, 9 of which were uncontested. Never looked looked like impacting the game, along with Stephenson, which was a major reason Collingwood only had 3 goals till three quarter time. GWS mopped up time and time again. His days are numbered. 1 Quote
