Elliott Himmelberg Biography

Fresh after two successive victories to break a run of 13 straight losses by the Crows, Elliott Himmelberg signs a two-year contract extension to remain at the Crows until the end of 2022.

"I was really happy with how we were going recently. It's been a product of the last ten weeks, we're really building towards something," Himmelberg said.

Elliott Himmelberg makes his AFL debut for Adelaide at Docklands Stadium with 13 disposals (5 kicks and 8 handballs), 5 marks, 3 tackles and a goal in a 104-point win over Carlton.

Elliott Himmelberg signs a two-year contract extension with Adelaide to remain at the club until the end of 2020.

"The club has been fantastic to me ever since I first arrived," Himmelberg said.

"I’ve settled in nicely to Adelaide and I’m stoked to be able to play footy here for another couple of years at least."

Eliott Himmelberg is placed on the Crows' long-term injury list, allowing Alex Keath to remain on the Crows' senior list.

With midfielder Curtly Hampton set to come off the long-term injury list and play his first game in three months in the SANFL this weekend, the Crows would have had to demote either Keath or fellow cross-code success story Hugh Greenwood back to the rookie list.

However, Adelaide has decided to rule Himmelberg out for the season with a foot injury and allow him to get a full pre-season under his belt.

Adelaide select Elliot Himmelberg with pick No.51 in the 2016 National Draft.

"Elliott's been injured, so he's missed a bit of footy this year, but we really liked his start to the season," Crows National Recruiting Manager Hamish Ogilvie said.

"He played back in the Allies, but we think he's probably forward with maybe a bit of forward-ruck, because he's maybe 197cm-plus now, so he's grown."
