I think he will either stay or go to the Hawks. Noise seems to be heading thay way.

If thats indeed the case I really hope we're stepping up our search for a small forward elsewhere, i.e. Butler or Gray

 

Gut feel is Eddie will more than likely find "some way" of keeping him for a few more years (assuming no cronic injury concerns still overhanging).

“Please welcome Jamie Elliott to Emirates, our latest Emirates Australia Ambassador”.

As he turns up to the presentation he gets out of his brand new HSV Chevrolet Camaro.

Mr "how to say a lot without saying anything at all"

 

Collingwood have an abundance of medium and small forwards and can afford to lose him. If they drive his price up and get a first round compo pick for losing him, they’d be laughing. If anything, they’ll be pushing him out the door, so I think we’ll land him.

i just hope his body holds up for us because he’s a proven goal kicker and we need him.

We're only a destination club if we have the dollars to pay massive overs.

His manager said he is going away for a break (few weeks?) to think things over and a couple of offers were on the table.  My gut feel he would stay looking less likely.  More than likely the Hawks unless the offer from our end is too good to refuse.  Would be a great addition if body holds up.

Potential offer to Frosty held back pending this?

My wordy yes BBO.

Do you remember when all the Carlton players (I'm talking 30 years ago) used to finish up at StKilda? Please don't let us become that.

Agree. Going away for a few weeks to think things over is not what you want to hear if you are a pies fan keen to keep him!

Flabbergasted that we would let Frosty go before Oscar.

I don't really connect the two CBD.  Frost re-signing might somehow be linked to other deal/s or he just upped his price too high.  Or Goody & Co. just don't rate him.

My biggest concern would be, and i hope the talk / reports are incorrect, IF Goody &/or some within the FD believe O-Mac is depth and can cover off on the likes of Frosty (if needed).

Good luck to O-Mac at VFL level and hope he enjoys his footy there.  I'm sure he'll be fine outside of footy anyway with a Melb uni Bachelor of Science behind him once he graduates.  Smart cookie and could even go into golf if he wanted hitting off scratch.

Don’t be silly RTG !

It’ll never happen to us!

I mean ... we’re a powerhouse.. a rich , successful and progressive organisation.

 

Oh !


If we were into Elliott from the start of the year and Hawthorn were late on the scene, you'd think we would have a better deal in place compared to the Hawks.

Pies can't match any offers with Grundy asking for the world.

You're right of course BBO. I fleetingly imagined us as a club without direction and significant financial backing. And with players not knocking down the door to join us.

That won't happen again.

Nurse, my medication please.

  • 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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    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.
