Elliott was a key defender and ruckman, originally from Lucknow Football Club in East Gippsland.[1] Picked by St Kilda in the 1994 National Draft from the Gippsland Power, Elliott was restricted to the reserves in his first few years at the club.[2] He had to wait until the 1998 AFL season to appear in the seniors.[3] In 1999 he had his best year at the club, with 19 appearances.[3] He earned the only Brownlow Medal vote of his career in round three that season, when he replaced a suspended Peter Everitt in the ruck.[3]
