My write up on Jamie last year following our PSD Phantom.

Looks like he's come on leaps and bounds as well.

Jamie Elliott



His height and weight belies his courage, almost to the stupid point where he’s putting his head where it has no business.



A very quick and agile small forward with very good goal sense and deadly accurate with the footy. Jamie won’t have too much problems adjusting to being a full time small forward, he isn’t your typical TAC midfielder who can’t play mid. He played some footy for the Pies VFL side so he knows about a little higher level and he tore the second half of the Young Guns VFL game apart.



The question marks over Jamie are very physical related. It’s his height and weight. He’s a slight kid, with a body shape that looks like it won’t stack on a ton of weight. Sort of that Rioli type but shorter as far as appearance goes. Fortunately I don’t see this as a massive problem as his aggression, tackling (though to make tackles stick on AFL bodies, he’ll have to work) and courage make up for this.



If he finds a way to get the body right to be able to cope with AFL footy, he’ll settle nicely as a modern small forward.

Doing everything right at the moment. Hope he gets a chance somewhere. Really focused on having a huge year. Good luck to him.
 
I think he was added to the squad relatively late and then be close to best on ground yesterday was a great achievement.

That 'young guns game' was not a flash in the pan then was it bud? :thumbsu:

Seems like a perfect fit for the Bombers ;)

Certainly not (fantastic initiative by the VFL and TAC too).

Get your own 'perfect fits' :D Haven't been able to watch him this year, but I'll be at the champs so it will be great to see how his body size and how he uses it have improved. Was very impressed with his lack of hesitation given his shape last year.
 
Jamie broke his collarbone on the weekend playing senior club footy. Shocking luck.
 
He's going to Collingwood with Marty Clarke.
 
Says who Jono??? I see Jamie was a top 10 performer in the clean hands test. Not surprised as he is a one grab player and clean with hand and foot.

According to the age, pick 25 for he and Marty Clarke via GWS.
 
Interesting. He played a few VFL games for Collingwoood last season. Obviously liked what they saw.
