More on Himmelberg to the Swans
He'd be a great get, and could fill a fair few holes..

I liked this part:

Himmelberg last week indicated his footy future was “something I don’t really want to be focusing on this early in the season”.

Yes Harry, just like Buddy you'll have to wait till the trade period to release the photo in your new red and white guernsey.

Why? It didn’t stop Norf.

, he's played like 58/115 games possible

I don't think he'll ever be reliable

 

[Jewelsbon]

Why do you guys even want Ben King, he's played like 58/115 games possible

I don't think he'll ever be reliable

Yep I agree.

 

[Kapers]

Max Gawn played around 26/115 games. 2 ACL's in the first three years.

I don't think he'll ever be reliable.

 

[Deccas]

If we have to get a gold coast forward I hope it's lukosious. Just reckon he'd pair really well with Logan and would thrive in a better set up.

For the meltz

 

[ashep]

Revisiting the Rowbottom conversation, there isn't a busier player on the ground most weeks.

Does a bit of everything and I've got no doubt if Horse was asking him to get hold of it 25+ times, he'd be more than capable.

 

[ShireSwan]

I just can't see why they'd move a player like Himmelberg on, as much as I'd love it. His versatility makes him so valuable.

All their players must get sick of playing for a club with no fans. It would be dispiriting in the extreme IMHO.
If he wants to stay in Sydney, and we make an equal offer he'd be mad not to switch.
45,000 at the SCG Vs 3000 at Homebush....if we can't sell that to the bloke we need new recruiters.

 

[Punts]

Bet he ends up at a big Vic club

Agreed and I think (well hope), that this is the one player that we are actually in the box seat to land, notwithstanding a crazy Adelaide offer.
I can't see where GWS are in any position to make him an out of this world offer, too many of their players are already tied up long term to big bucks, so I would like to think we could match anything they could offer, with the bonus of not having to move interstate, playing for a team in contention, in front of a good crowd with a large and strong supporter base.

 

[SeanM]

I am never sure how much truth there is in these rumours.

I think player agents will hint that we are interested in every out of contract tall forward. Because Franklin will likely retire, so therefore we will apparently have lots of money and be desperate to replace him. Also we are fairly discreet so we probably won't bother confirming or denying rumours.

It makes us a convenient target to drive up a player's price.

Himmelberg parents (from Wagga) have purchased a house in Adelaide; ideal spot to watch both their boys play.
For once both the Adelaide Clubs may have a Free Agency advantage.

Not all 20-somethings want to move close to their parents….

PS: can we please borrow our Aliir for a few rounds?

 

[Superstar swan]

So all of a sudden wer not offering tdk 800k for 8 years ? Just shows how far fetched these reports can be.

Does anyone think kinnear gets on the blower to damo and days look mate just letting ya know we are going after himmelberg.

With heeney, paps and mills all on long term deals. Guys like warner and gulden exploding and logan a valuable commodity, its highly unlikely we can price out many clubs when it comes to free agents

 

[Punts]

Few whispers saying we might be into Fyfe for 2 years as that bull we need in the middle

 

[SGBeach]

I reckon he does.. probably after work on a Friday arvo.. then hes off to the pub with Dalrymple and crew for a good laugh.
Rumour has it, Dalrymple has dared him to drop Fyfes name next week

 

[The King!]

middle of the doctors room?

 

[Punts]

middle of the doctors room?

No idea lol

great… Reid could do with some company in the rehab room.

I wouldn't get too excited. Fyfe needs a whole midfield built around him because he works one way. Who are you bumping for him anyway.

Will not fly in red and white imo

Was I getting excited?

Wouldn’t be an issue for me

If it helped and was fit why not

Probably complete crap
