Agreed we need to cycle our youngsters through with 2 or 3 week stints to get them used to the big stage but not ruin them physically.Having to compete with McKay was definitely not ideal. But agree that he doesn't look ready for seniors. Doesn't offer a lot of forward defensive pressure either.
I wouldn't complain if they give him another week. But I'm starting to think developing in the VFL might be best for him this year
What? He did nothing!Definite improvement on his first game, a lot more confident. Seems to
have it!
I was happy enough with tonight, and we should play him again. His defensive pressure is definitely a big focus point - he lopes a bit when he should be running like someone with a knife is after him
He gets pushed under the ball because of his light frame.Happy with what exactly?
Clearly has talent but he is losing his head at AFL level, needs to calm down and learn some composure because at VFL level his hands are brilliant, at AFL level he keeps running under the ball or dropping ones he should take.
The kid has ‘it’. Will be a very good player. Gets to good spots. Smart and happy to give him 5-7 senior games this year to prepare him for future seasons. As a marking player he will obviously do better as his strength improves but he moved well tonight
JDG’s last goal Henry was clear inside 50 but Jordy burnt him. He will be dangerous when his team mates get more confidence in him
Im not sure about that..
Not saying he will be Carey,
Can't expect much from a kid who is light framed key forward, I wasn't a big fan of him when he was drafted but we almost had to take him.
I don’t think Henry is tall enough to play the type of marking forward role in the AFL that he has played successfully as a junior and in the VFL. His opponents will be taller, stronger, experienced and just as quick. It’s a tough ask.

Yep, got to good spots, spots where he would have got 3-5 opportunities in the twos, but with the step up in level he couldn’t get the same separation or was out bodied. Would like to see him get 3-4 games in a row.He relies on marking so needs some size/strength for seniors
Yeah don't agree at all. The kid lacks experience, that is all.I don’t think Henry is tall enough to play the type of marking forward role in the AFL that he has played successfully as a junior and in the VFL. His opponents will be taller, stronger, experienced and just as quick. It’s a tough ask.
