    Nah, I'd present like one of you happy clapper AMWAY salesmen. Surely we'd be in the box seat then.

    And if he didn't come our way, I'd revert to type and roll out the goon bottles and my sister-in-law.

    I laughed at this post until i realised my wife is your sister in law.....

    Then i stopped laughing.

    When I read faulty’s post I had a laugh knowing you’d come across it. Classic.

    Perhaps Lewis Taylor and Allen Christensen haven’t been offered new contracts because Brisbane are waiting to see what Elliott does? It would mean they’ve been into Elliott longer than we thought.

    I had heard murmurs all the way back in June that they were interested. Like us, they've been discussing it with his manager for quite a long time. This isn't something that's just appeared in the last week. I still feel that he will either stay at Collingwood or come to Melbourne. I don't believe he wishes to move interstate just yet. This will be, most likely, his last contract, and I think he would rather remain in the circles he knows than uproot himself.

    It really feels like this is now more unlikely that it is likely, which is a shame a si had warmed to teh idea, but you cant lose what you didnt have. My interest now lie sin who is plan B.

    This club is getting roundly questioned over their intent during this trade period, and Tomlinson while underwhelming to the outside will play a role and Langdon is a really good get should we land him,  if you added Elliott it would be a good trade period, so whats our plan b.. assume it will play out sooner now rather than later.

    We're still offering more. Don't listen to Nixon... I know people thinks he's in the know, but he's usually spewing BS to get noticed.

    We are probably 3rd in line right now.  He fits our need for a quality small forward.

    Apparently on Triple M this morning it was reported that we are out of the race for Elliott?

    Collingwood confirm their offer for Jamie Elliott remains at two years, but list manager Ned Guy says the Pies are confident of keeping the forward because of "continual conversations"

    "continual conversations" .... terms of employment contract post the two years at the Pies? #eddielovesyanudgenudge

    That was the rumour over the weekend, does this make it official?

    This thread is starting to feel much like Homer Simpson’s pep and sleeping pills truck driving scene.

    Any answer will do now.

    Just listened to the Triple M segment and Tom Browne claims that "Melbourne reckon they are out of the race".

    Not unless we were willing to off Gus or similar.  Need forwards / outside run & class.

    • 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?
