Toast Do we underrate Ricky Henderson?

[Crankyhawk]

Crows fans on here were adamant that David Mackay is a better player than Henderson.

I am yet to find a crows bf supporter who rates David Mackay.

 

[4THAWN]

Did it all for us today Ricky, brilliant courageous marks, consistent two way running and good disposal.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Absolutely brilliant game.

Poppy can thank Hendo for both of his goals as well.

 

[hk89]

Best on ground for us after O'Meara I thought.

 

[JC Hawks]

Best on ground for us after O'Meara I thought.

Nah, Hendo was better than O'Meara, pretty comfortably as well I would think.

 

[Zack]

Best on ground for us after O'Meara I thought.

I'd have probably gone the other way today.

 

[hk89]

Nah, Hendo was better than O'Meara, pretty comfortably as well I would think.

Certainly that case is arguable. I gave O'Meara bonus points due to the extra load and responsibility he's carrying without Mitchell (and Shiels today for a fair chunk of game time). Henderson is currently super reliable, one of those players that rarely makes a poor decision and almost never wastes a disposal, so I will not argue too much on which of the two was best.

 

[MrPremiership]

Hendo BOG today

 

[TylerDurden]

One of our best players now.

 

[BTB Hawks]

My vote for hawks BOG against the Doggies and Umpires

 

[hodgeysleftfoot]

Had a very good game
That kick to the goal square was sensational

 

[Rocket72]

He won't get three brownlow votes but he should. Would take him to 12 for his career.

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

Outstanding game. I had him BOG for either team.

Got 3 votes in the AFLCA award

Macrae prob BOG with 45 and a goal

Macrae didn't have 45 mate.

Yes, Brownlow votes are all the evidence we need.

Macrae might have been BOG in your opinion and that is fine but it is far from clear cut. Henderson and O'Meara were immense as was Liberatore and Schache kicked 4. To be honest I didn't notice Macrae for much of the day...but he is quite an unassuming sort of player.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

He would be leading the BnF right now.

Never thought I'd see the day where Ricky Henderson was getting a run through the midfield. Yes, it is an indictment on our depth ATM, but he was very good regardless.

He's become a very versatile and skillful player, who has even developed a hard edge to his game.

Full credit to Ricky. Hope he keeps this up.

 

[threesixpio]

Wouldn’t be far away from a B and F at round 3

Ah goddamnit read the thread first

 

[TBoyleSuperstar]

Hendo great again today. Great link player, very good finisher on goal, good in the air and nice disposal.
And currently leading our bnf
Another one our little recruiting gems

 

[Gaston]

If you had to put your house on someone kicking a goal,
who would you back, Henderson or McEvoy?

That goal on the run today never looked like missing and dead set split the middle.

 

[William Wonka]

Our best player so far this year

 

[drviccles]

I love Ricky. I thought he was older than he was with his greying hair. Turns out he's 30?

That goal on the run today never looked like missing and dead set split the middle.

And in even better news, I had Hendo in the goal kicking competition
