Or the fact that a few of his friends knew and word got out from there. This is the AFL, it's not Mi5.

Elliot Looks over the line to me.
I don't know. If he is going on holidays as mentioned tomorrow and has not told the club he is leaving i reckon he will be staying at the pies. I will happily be wrong but IMO if he was going to leave would have thought he would do it before he goes away. As people have said before as well reckon it was a set ploy to have the cameras when he done the tour. Only one player and all it will do if stays at collingwood on a bigger offer will put pressure on salary cap in future.Elliot Looks over the line to me.
All the talk from before the preliminary final, was, can Collingwood fit all 3 of Elliot, DeGoey and Stephenson in the Same team?Personally would seem quite negligent of Collingwood to offer him 500 for 3 seasons when they have all those guns coming off contract . Makes much more sense to let him go and have Stephenson take his role to a certain point also with de goey not sure if he is the player they want to be paying 500k to .
I reckon he is milking Collingwood for everything...
Or he is milking us for everything because the pies can’t afford to keep him?
Hopefully find out early tomorrow, we do seem to be holding off on our small fwds contracts so maybe it will happen.
I don't think it's a bad thing. For $600,000 we get a player who is guaranteed to be in our best 22, oppose to paying $400,000 for guys like Cutler, Taylor, Robertson and Christensen who are on the fringe.I reckon he is milking Collingwood for everything...

Tom brown on triple M in Melbourne this morning told us he was tipped off that Elliott was as Brisbane airport at 7:00am the day after the pies b&f. So rang ahead to the qld crew to get a camera out to the Gabba. Eddie was sitting there quite smug apparently which Luke Darcy mentioned means he’s not going anywhere. Time will tell I suppose.
What can we realistically expect for our possible trade outs this week? IMO I would have them in this order for possible trade currency, a high of a late 20s pick for Lewy to a low of a future 4th rounder for Josh Walker and Ben Keays.
Lewy Taylor- Young, played plenty of good seniors footy and very durable.
Tom Cutler- His best is good enough, fresh start could be good for him.
Allen Christensen- Surely someone wants him, good solid player although could be more consistent.
Nick Robertson- His job on Whitfield in the semi could leave clubs keen on him as a tagger, also sets high standards on the training track.
Josh Walker- I don't think anyone will come for him.
Ben Keays- Ditto.
Won’t be as smug when he loses a player or 2 next year hahaIf that’s the case why didn’t Eddie just say we’re working through a few things but we’re confident he stays.
