This should be a reminder to those supporters who claimed "it's onlyyyy one bad year".

Every year is an opportunity missed not only to challenge for a flag, but to attract quality, to keep players happy, coaches happy, supporters on board and finance in order.

It's a snowball effect and if we have indeed missed out on him it's a big loss.

meanwhile Mark Stevens & Tom Browne ch7 colleague barely 24 hours earlier felt he was a good thing for re-signing @ the pies. Wonder what they'll say in the next 24 hours? 

Exactly.

No point getting emotionally invested in anything during trade time- it either changes by the hour or was never true to begin with.  It’s basically the bachelor.

 

Enjoy the drama and conjecture of it all!

He'll be back soon enough espousing a must trade for a back pocket player.

@Demonland will have to get a restraining order out on the guy, wow. 

Anyway...for Browne to say we’ve resigned ourselves to not getting Elliott it sounds to me like he’s spoken to someone at the club. Or maybe he’s just talking out his [censored]? Who knows, we’ll know soon enough I suppose.

Elliott's brother lives there and saw somewhere they are going on holidays together. Maybe just a visit to hear what the Lions are offering?

He’s heading off on a vacation today or tomorrow so it makes complete sense to go and see their facilities before he goes away.

You cannot be serious Charlie Spargo compared to Jamie Elliot??

Well Typical MFC Cannot lure real talent!! Just typical!

Charlie Spargo will be 10 x the player Jamie Elliot is, that is unless Elliot accepts our offer.

This will be the last big contract of his career- he would be negligent not to.

“As The Age reported on Saturday, the Demons launched their bid for Elliott weeks ago while Fagan met him recently. The Lions reportedly had used their injury-free run in 2019 as a selling point to the oft-hamstrung forward.”

Umm ok. We got lucky with injuries this year, it's bound to happen next year too. ?

do we put this activity on hold now?

Don't both clubs share a car park? Would be bloody awkward for him if so. Maybe building another car park and wall to keep out the undesirables first on the agenda...

Absolutely. I’ve heard his hamstrings are done and when he’s in rehab he likes a beer. Bullet-dodged Neo from Matrix style. 

Whatever, it IS TIME WE DODGED ANOTHER JIM TILBROOK-LIKE BULLET. REMEMBER?  KELVIN T, GEORGE LAKES, AND ALL THOSE OTHER SEMI MESSIAHS WHO TURNED INTO DUST AND BULLDUST BEFORE OUR EYES.

Also a reminder to the players and the so called leadership group.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
