Couldn't agree with this more. From what I've seen, he'd be my first pick. Wouldn't be jumping at past ghosts when it comes to retention.

Rayner and Stephenson are the only two with the X factor. I'd take Rayner first because he can play multiple roles. Don't really care if he poses a greater flight risk. Schache was considered a safe choice.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.....vote YES
Crows are balls deep into Himmelberg. Would be very surprised if he comes here.
He just signed an extension at GWS.
Already did
Stephenson for me.
Based of course on a comprehensive study of his career to date:-
The usual grab-bag of You Tube highlights.
I'm actually in the trade 1 for St Kilda's 7+8. Think it is actually quite even across the first 10 or so players. Coffield, Brayshaw and Clarke around that area and eventhough he had a shocker of a year D.Fogarty. Would also trade up in the top 10 with our 12 and 18 for maybe Pies 6 and 36 or even Dogs 9 and 24.
Edit: I would also really like to see Worpol on our list next year......somehow

That's like your opinion, man.
Think you wil find he re signed with GWS a few weeks back
I know the Crows were going after him fairly hard a while ago. Didn't realised he re-signed. Looks very promising.

Pretty sure we made inquiries as well. But all in vein. Another who can swing forward and back on smalls and talls, athletic. Would have been a great get.
Yep he's exactly the type of player we need. We only have key talls we need some more mid range types.
Extended for another 2 years recently.

So what you're actually saying is he is on the market?

Is he visiting his parents in the off season? Clear sign he wants out.

Brisbane believe he is gettable despite extending his contract with GWS only weeks ago. Reports have emerged that Brisbane and GWS may have already had informal discussions about what a trade for Himmelberg might look like......

Cheers. I'm certainly going to stay on the dow, Stephenson and LDU train reading those numbers
