It’s all relative Kappa. I’m judging WHE more harshly because he should know better, do better, and he’s be paid a lot more than Henry. He knows how senior games play out, Henry doesn’t.
Like I said in my post last night, Henry has something to work with, which I don’t see in the likes of Ruscoe.
It probably was a mistake to play him. So why did we? Bucks knows the dangers of playing a kid who isn’t ready. He played Yagmoor in his first ever game as coach. What a disaster that was. He must have been more - desperate? - last night than we knew. Which in itself is scary.

He wasn’t the worst on ground.
I'm talking purely on the performance, I'm not saying he's going to be no good. Clearly wasn't ready.

What 1 Bad Game and Debut Game.
Should get a Few More Games and IF he does not improve over a Few Games then might send him back to the VFL.
He be a Very Good Player with more Experince

Yes WHE was better.
Can't believe people are bagging him on his first game where he played forward and not even the great Tony Locket would kick goals in our side. If people want to see the end of players like WHE and Thomas, then that's why we recruited a forward, who actually has some good forward craft

And he didnt equal that in one game last year
I am not going to judge him on last year. If the hub excuse is good enough for the Great Grundy, then it will more than suffice for Stephenson.
Ruscoe was better.

They were on par.
They stuck out like two blokes who just didn't look like senior footballers in their efforts at all. Which isn't a big surprise. Ruscoe's third real game of senior footy - including VFL, Henry's 1st.
Brockman looked right at home for the hawks.

Umm, i know we are a bit s**t but Plugger kicked 110 goals in his first year (1995) at Sydney and they had won the last three spoons....

I'm sure a few did, but a heap of players need a bit longer. Not that many are ready to go day 1.

Henry and Ruscoe were the only two who just looked like they didn’t belong out there. Low intensity and no second efforts. Didak wasn't ready in year 1, most aren't, it's not a big deal.

Thanks for pointing that out, but it appears he was accidentally incoherent.
I kicked 108 goals in 1995 and it didn't mean much
