Great Dane took a bite out of the Competition in 1995

Could you supply more context? Is this an actual dog, a team name, or Hamlet?

So...what's the exact meaning of the sentence, Jhoff?

Dane is the person in question.

Great is added to indicate his abilities (and a clear reference to the large dog).

Took a bite, again a reference to a dog, means that he did well, much better than others in the competition.

Clever writing, I'd say.

Can i say,

"Thomas took a bite of the others in the call which was scheduled to discuss the impacts of implementing a system"

Does this sound correct ?

No, I'm sorry. I don't know what you mean to say.

What did Thomas do? Can you say this another way?

In the above post, philip had said, "Took a bite" means "Did well".

Assume that, a team leader has arranged for a meeting to discuss on some Topic. What i wanted to say is like, he had performed better on the meeting. That is he is able to analyse and give more ideas.

Philip's explanation is in reference to your original sentence. 'To take a bite out of' = to take a part of someone else's share of (something), just as I might take a bite out of your apple.

Thomas took a bite out of the others' presentations with his quick analysis and bright ideas in the meeting to discuss the impacts of implementing the new system.
