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.

This is assuming Ned Guy is telling the truth. Collingwood don't want to appear as if they are able to be bent over a barrel this early in the Trade Week. :P

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

This is not surprising. Not convinced we were ever a genuine chance.

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.

I'd be turning my attention to Sam Gray if Elliott is not happening....

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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
