Breaking News: Collingwood Is the Only AFL Team That Feels Like Home, Says Star Jamie Elliott

Collingwood forward Jamie Elliott has opened up about his deep connection to the black-and-white army, declaring that the Magpies are the only AFL club that truly feels like home. In a candid reflection that has touched the hearts of fans, Elliott spoke about loyalty, belonging, and what it means to represent one of the most iconic football clubs in Australia.

A Career Defined by Loyalty

Since being drafted by Collingwood in 2011, Elliott has grown into one of the club’s most admired players. Known for his spectacular high-flying marks, clutch goals, and relentless work ethic, he has consistently delivered moments of magic that have electrified the Magpie Army.

But beyond the highlights reel, Elliott has battled adversity—enduring serious injuries and setbacks that at times threatened his career. Through it all, Collingwood stood by him. According to Elliott, that unwavering support cemented his lifelong bond with the club.

“There’s something different about Collingwood,” Elliott explained. “It’s not just a team, it’s a family. The supporters, the culture, the history—it’s all-encompassing. This is home, and it always will be.”

Fans Feel the Connection

Supporters have long admired Elliott not just for his talent, but for the passion he shows in wearing the black-and-white guernsey. His comments have only reinforced the affection between star and supporter. Social media quickly erupted after the remarks were made public, with fans calling him “a Magpie for life” and praising his authenticity.

One Collingwood fan wrote: “Jamie Elliott isn’t just playing for Collingwood, he bleeds for it. That’s why we love him.”

The Spirit of Collingwood

Collingwood’s identity has always been larger than football itself. The Magpie Army is renowned for its passionate, loyal, and sometimes polarizing presence in the AFL landscape. For Elliott, this atmosphere creates an unrivaled sense of belonging.

“Every time I run out at the MCG in front of our fans, it’s spine-tingling. You can’t replicate that anywhere else. It’s more than football—it’s culture, it’s family, it’s history,” Elliott said.

He also highlighted the influence of past greats, including Peter Daicos and Scott Pendlebury, whose leadership has shaped Collingwood’s enduring DNA. Elliott stressed that wearing the jumper means carrying responsibility for generations of Magpies.

Overcoming the Struggles

Part of Elliott’s connection to the club stems from the resilience he’s had to show throughout his career. Recurring injuries—including back, hamstring, and ankle problems—once left his future uncertain. But rather than walk away, he chose to fight through the pain with Collingwood behind him every step of the way.

That fight has become part of his identity. “I wouldn’t be here without Collingwood’s support. They stuck by me in the darkest times, and that’s something I’ll never forget,” he said.

Looking Ahead

Now injury-free and still performing at an elite level, Elliott remains focused on chasing further success with Collingwood. With a new generation of Magpie talent rising alongside him, including Nick and Josh Daicos, Elliott sees a future filled with promise.

“The best part is that I get to keep building memories with this team. There’s nowhere else I’d rather be,” he concluded.

For Jamie Elliott, Collingwood isn’t just where he plays—it’s home. And for the Magpie Army, the feeling is mutual.
