[Baudolino]

Problem is they played Taylor & Henderson predominately in defence against Freo - so if Ratugolea is to come in at the expense of a tall forward then it might be Henry who makes way.

Henry is undroppable even if the presence of Taylor and Henderson means he has to play in the forward line. He's already more damaging in that part of the ground than our small forwards and he's just as mobile as any of them, so there's no reason to select them over him if it comes down to it.

Please note I'm not endorsing any change that would see Henry dropped - I want him to keep his spot; just thinking about what the MC is most likely to do

There's no reason why Henry can't fulfill the role of a small forward and add some marking threat at the same time... he's got all of the attributes and as you say is producing better football than any of them.

Personally I don't think there's a chance we drop a versatile guy like Henry.

He played more forward than back at vfl level so its no stretch for him going down there. He’s good at both ends.

Was also a forward and sometimes ruck as a junior... it's funny to see him now being referred to as a defender.

Imho..

That's more what he's become than what he is naturally.

At what point do you start thinking of Blicz as a defender instead of a utility, btw?

When he takes the RM Williams sticker off his back?
