@Demons11 What have you heard D11?

They are confident but Collingwood have called him in today to try and turn it around.

He was definitely there, but the story Trade Radio went with was that the Director of Football was the only other employee in the meeting. No List Manager. If true what might that mean? Pies have made an offer and that's that?

What I have heard is that we came hard for Elliot but he's more likely to stay at Collingwood now as they've upped their offer due to rival interest and due to Wells retiring.

"I just went to have a chat with Walshy about a few changes happening ... I've got a few things happening in the next couple of days but hopefully (I'll stay at Collingwood)," Elliott said as he left the club on Thursday.

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.

OMac will play senior football next year. Happy to place an avatar bet on it.

That sounds like what someone who's leaving would say....

I'm still holding out hope as I think he'd be good for us, but everything I've heard is that he'll stay.

Combine testing is on at the moment, so I'd say the list manager would be there. Director of footy probably indicates more about trying to sell the club and comparing it to others. Good chance to come is what I've heard, we'll know by the end of Saturday.

Forgive me, but what is the importance of Saturday?

From the article linked in my last post:

"Elliott is due to go on holiday on Saturday, with a final call on his future likely to be made before then."

Unfortunately you are probably spot on Bin.  We are miles apart on how we see O-Mac and will never agree.  Quite possibly the Coach, some within the FD & angry bird still have wraps on him becoming a B+ or A grade backman.

A hangover from the Macca era where he went all in on his favorite boys prior to seeing how they might perform on the big stage.  Weid was another of those he thought would become a gun when he first arrived.  Talk about putting pressure on the poor buggers.  Just prep, train & let em play to their best....que sera, sera

Flabbergasted that we would let Frosty go before Oscar.

Frosty apparently demanding $650k O Mac probably on $350k. If May and Lever play Hore can be the 3rd defender. I'd probably rather him in that role than Frost. Petty is building. O Mac fill in player if there's injuries .

Interesting. Wonder what happened, and after he requested a trade to them.

 

 

Did he? I can't find anything from him, his manager or Hawks

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
