Dynamic small forward Jamie Elliott has resisted a strong push to move north and has-re-signed to remain at Collingwood, making the premiership player a Magpie for life.<\/p>\n

The unrestricted free agent<\/a> has recommitted to Collingwood for two more years on at least $650,000 per year.<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old received a three-year offer from the Suns on more money than Collingwood had been offering with their two-year deal.<\/p>\n

With family in Airlie Beach in northern Queensland and plans for him to move there post-football, Elliott very seriously considered the chance to move north now and take up the offer at the Gold Coast.<\/p>\n

The Magpies increased their offer to Elliott earlier this week, raising the dollar amount each season, but the contract remains for two years, not the three available at the Suns.<\/p>\n

The re-signing is hugely important for the Magpies, who are likely to lose another of their 30-something forwards \u2013 the 32-year-old Brody Mihocek, who has received a three-year deal from Melbourne. Collingwood have offered him a two-year deal on less money than the Demons.<\/p>\n

Elliott was desperately unlucky to not be named All-Australian this year. He was on the shortlist but missed out on the final team, with selectors considering the 177-centimetre player a target forward, not a small forward.<\/p>\n

Elliott kicked 60 goals for the year, including four in the losing preliminary final side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dynamic small forward Jamie Elliott has resisted a strong push to move north and has-re-signed to remain at…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":181971,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,41,39,42,40],"class_list":["post-181970","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181970","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=181970"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181970\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/181971"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181970"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=181970"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=181970"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
