Below quotes from Elliott’s interview with 3AW. Considering Collingwood are still in the running, sounds fair enough to me.
“I’ve always said that I’m going to wait until the end of the year to negotiate anything,” Elliott told Sportsday.
“I felt like I needed to get back and play some good footy, missing a whole year last year.”
Asked if he was chasing a long-term deal (which he’s been linked with at other Melbourne-based clubs), Elliott said that would be “great”.
“But I’ve got this week to focus on and potentially a week after that,” he said.
“All my focus is on this week.”
