Heard about 3-4 weeks ago his name pop up as someone who may want to return to VIC. Signed a long term deal last year from memory.

Houston would be a very good get. Probably cost a bit in trade though.

Houston is a very good footballer.
He could well be the goal kicking mid we are crying out for.
Would cost our first pick I reckon.

Trading a top 10 pick for a 28 year old isn't good business. Surely we've moved on from these deals.

AA 27 year old (doesn't turn 28 till mid next year) who is super durable (lowest games in a season is 17).
IF we felt like Houston could push us into the top 4 while also adding a FA or two then I am all for it.

That was my hesitation with Chol. But I think the club is getting the best out of him at the moment

Houston is not a midfielder for those pushing this angle. He is a super offensive HBF.

Sam also believes this is the way.
Houston would take two first rounders at least. Remember the Wingard deal and add more.

Don’t think our timeline is correct for houston who would cost a lot of draft capital.

Of ordinary character.
Good ball in hand.
Can’t defend. Is slow. His oppos hit the scoreboard.
Half backs are not an area we are lacking… especially ones that are 28 next year.
Hard pass.

I was more referring to Rayner’s performances in prelims/grand final.

Dan Houston would immediately be our best running HBF and wingman. But he'd surely cost quite a lot in a fair trade, and Port would ask for more again given they are trying to compete for a top four spot. They can't afford to lose him.
