1. My gut feelings.

2. He wants to stay at the filth or so I am led to believe.

3. He is dangerously injury prone.

4. We are looking at Langdon and Tomlinson. How much coin is there to cover this. Elliot would want a gold nugget on his cake. Losing frost wont cover it and I don't think we should be getting rid of big name players.

I read an article a couple of years ago when he was on the “road to recovery” from another injury about he had turned himself around and how excited he was to get back on the park, he also said he wanted to be captain of the Pies one day.

I think he is a gun up fwd, not great on defensive side of game and can get found out. Love his ability to find space and can kick some goals. 

Youd think he would take a longer term and higher $$ deal to play with us considering his injury issues. He probably will stay a Pie. :) 


Another one of those deals that requires 20 - 20 hindsight.

Probably Jordan Lewis in the Preliminary Final in Perth.  Saw it first hand unfortunately.

Where do I sign?

interesting how things could turn if we recruit a few players and our regulars can stay on the park. that's a forward line to work with.

Add Pick 3 whether that's Hayden Young, Sam Flanders or Lachie Ash and it's a huge trade period for us!

Glad we are chasing after Elliot.

Not really, a couple of years ago it was their biggest problem.

They have turned it around quickly (not in light years, in the space of a year), so can we...

The same as Eddie says to the rest of the AFL.


look we offer him a packet and get him, good, outcome as we dont waste a draft pick to pickup a decent player.

We offer him a packet and the pies match it screws with their salary cap, we keep our money for another play. also a very good outcome.

I thought i saw someone mention $600k pa. well i am sure we are paying that for a few injury riddled players who have not produced, so I say game on, get him.

@Demonland Easiest photoshop job ever today with the swap of Elliott's head onto Jones body? ?

I actually upped the degree of difficulty taking the Rory Laird head on Viney's body from the other week, erasing the arms and head from the image and then cutting out Elliott's head and arms and sticking them on the mutilated remains of the Laird/Viney body. 

I didn't even think of using Chunk. ?‍♂️

Couldnt agree more. Unless we offer some insanely stupid amount of money then we literally have nothing to lose. Landing Langdon Tomlinson and Langdon with pick 3 still in hand is a bloody exciting prospect

It's pick 2


This is a good situation.  If we get him, that's great.  If we don't get him, I don't think anybody will be horribly upset.  We can't lose.

Long Time ago, you might as well have said Henry Coles

Well we can lose, if our forward line is trash next year.

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
