The first goal of the game? The centering pass on the left? He had his moments (selfishly had a shot from outside 50 late). 

Unsighted after half time, when the game was on the line. Major pass for me. Let’s not waste money on this guy past his use by date.

    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. 

    So the fact pies only had 20 inside 50’s to half time had nothing to do with that, almost our whole list must be past there used by your logic. He has been one of these better players in the 2nd half of the year and would be a major asset in our fwd line over the likes of spargo or anb or anyone else you could mention

    I thought he had a go ! Class act, not his fault

    We should definitely go for this guy. Won’t cost a kings ransom. I’d say he’s a reasonable chance to leave given the cap issues Pies will face.

    Tom Browne just said that we've offered Elliot 3 years while the pies have offered 2. Also said other clubs like Bulldogs and Hawthorn will chase Elliot hard also in the next coming weeks.

    Interestingly he also said that Melbourne have a tight salary cap space at the moment.

    The race for Jamie Elliott now includes hawthorn and possibly north and dogs. Pies have tight space, Melbourne can’t pay overs either. Demons in good position. But will become major talking point

    • Channel 7’s Tom Browne is reporting that the race for Jamie Elliott’s signature has heated up, with Melbourne not the only club interested in the Collingwood forward.

    Elliott, 27, is out-of-contract at the end of this season, and with the Pies’ year now over, more clubs are in the hunt for him.

    “The race for Elliott has heated up this morning,” Browne told Channel 7’s Game Day.

    “Melbourne are offering three years, Collingwood are offering two.

    “My understanding is this: multiple clubs, with money, are interested in Elliott.

    “The main ones would be Hawthorn, potentially with salary cap space, also the Bulldogs and North Melbourne, so I think there will be a real race for Elliott now in coming weeks.

    In fairness, Tom Brown was the the first one to call the Adam Tomlinson interest at the start of August on Talking Footy. And also the Ask Jones to St Kilda as well.

    Whether you want to believe him or not thats up to you. But he's got a lot right then wrong.

    Tom Browne is in the Sam McClure basket of casting the widest net possible. The more you say the more you seemingly get right, it's an absolute journalistic farce. Half these journos have already ended up with egg on their faces from players re-signing that they were signed sealed and delivered to other clubs. 

    The key words there by Browne are "multiple clubs" "with money" - which could mean literally half the teams in the comp, and he'd be happy to take the credit if Elliot lands at any of the clubs he mentioned. Don't believe anything it until it happens.

    This doesn't necessarily mean we've got a tight cap. It just means there are others we would prefer to pay more.

    I could be wrong, but that's my take.

    So who's our Stephenson and De Goey? Maybe Petracca is our De Goey, but I don't see a Stephenson-like player on our list currently.

    Totally different players. Stephenson brings blistering pace. Fritsch brings foot skills (but only if he's forward of centre, otherwise he's a turnover merchant).

    We do not have pace like Stephenson anywhere. The closest we come is maybe Hunt, Frost or May. None of them are natural forwards though.

    If it’s true we only have 2 x A Graders (Max and Clarry) then it begs the question have we overpaid our B Graders and others based on potential? We have quite a few who are only VFL standard  and would hopefully not be on big coin.

    When you sign blokes like Braydon Pruess to a 4 year deal worth 500k a year then yes it begs the question.

    Max, Clarry, Lever and May are all A graders.

    Based on 2019, many on Demonland are saying Clarry doesn't qualify, so really it's just Max. 

    However, if you've watched the grand output of these players, it's not unfair to classify each of them as A graders.

    Sounds like Tom Browne is just guessing who the other clubs are and other outlets are just running with it as fact. Business as usual then.

    As if he’s on $500k. Where did you pull that one from?

    The funny thing about all this is that most people think it happens all of sudden.  Interested parties would have been in contact for months and aren’t all of sudden throwing their hats into the ring.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
