He's trailing Zorko by a few hundred votes, now that just isn't right.

I've asked the techies what the go is with this. I'll let you know when/if I get a response.

This time I didn't get a duplicate, Quicky. Footy Classified just stated that Elliott tested number 2 at last year's draft camp (secretly). Have I misheard? Nobody wanted him but us !

It wasn't a case of no one wanted him, it was a case of who made the deal with GWS first (because he was pre-listed by them), and there's rumours that we made the Clarke/Elliott deal with GWS even before the finals began last year.:)

Never Heard of that Rumor Matty, Where did you hear from?

So did Elliot went to Draft Camp already know what club he was going too?
 
Bit of a silly poll there, Zorko was easily the better player on the weekend, dudes a star, but he is no unsung hero. Should be between Alex Johnson and Jamie Elliot.

Anyway, as someone previously predicted Tom McDonald took the rising star nomination over Jamie, didn't see his game so can't comment. Better luck next time Jamie :thumbsu:

The longer the season goes the more rising star nominees are judged on collective record rather than weekly performances.

^ Thanks Presti.

So if Elliot was pre listed by GWS as a previously non drafted player, he mustn't have shown much as a junior and presumably is now not "bottom aged". A later developer, I guess. Interesting, as he has a touch of class about him now, for sure. Makes you wonder how many other gems there are in the VFL etc. who didn't "shine" at the right moment.

Explained here.

Ogier said Elliott had played only a handful of TAC Cup games last year before breaking his collarbone. The year before that he had badly torn a hamstring ​

we would have asked GWS to pre list him so they could on-trade him same as we did with Clarke, and Krak and Ceglar with GC. Both Ceglar and Elliot were 19 year olds who would have nominated the previous year.​

Great way to pick up talent without going through the draft, Collingwood is becoming very good at it.​
 
Big segment on The Club on Jamie who is interviewing very impressively. Seems a great kid who has had his fair share of hardship, his dad dying when he was 13.

It's those experiences that can shape a guy. It gives us an insight about what drives him. Quality kid.
 
New members would do well to adopt Elliott for their username because he has a long career ahead of him at The Pies. He speaks con fidently and articulately and seems a kid who is very comfortable with himself and what he is becoming. There is something about him that suggests courage and commitment at the contest and a hint of leadership skills, perhaps qualities developed through adversity and a focused mindset. And a kid who speaks highly of his mum can't be all bad!
 
Can't imagine what it'd be like to lose your father at 13 I'm sure he'd be very proud of him.

Great kid handled himself well in the interview and look forward to watching him play in the jumper for years to come?
 
Hey guys long time lurker of this forum. Might not like the pies much but I have huge respect with how you guys go about your footy. West Australian county boy I went to school with Marley in high school and since him and Elliot debuted at the same time I have followed there progress with a keen interest. The weekends game was insane best I have seen in while even tho we lost I really am not disappointed with our effort. On Elliot the kid is pure class ripped patty mac to pieces seems to have a mix of medhurst and lecras for me good set of hands and a brilliant finisher. And just due to my keen interest in Williams I have followed his rise to afl since his colts days 13kicks 2 marks 4 tackles and 3 spoils according to champion data in the west. Was very surprised by beams and next time at subi I would tag Kerr most clearances on ground. Best of luck for the rest of the year and I hope to see you in the finals :)

Your comments are welcome. Our clubs have great respect for each other after last week. It was a great contest between two in form teams. Best of luck till we meet again in the finals!
 
The nickname for young jamie should be ''medders''. Dubbed as the new Medhurst early this year by people at the club, love the way he goes about his things and have seen a lot of similarities between the two!
