Recommitted Lachie Henderson [delisted, re-drafted as a rookie]

[Turbocat]

Why hasn't he been tried forward for Geelong?

Im not sure he likes playing there to be honest.

Is definetly better in defence

You would only ever play him forward if late in the game trailing and needing something different up front

 

[Warhorse]

Would be perfect for the suns as they won't be playing finals anytime soon. He is a woeful finals players

 

[Chocoholic]

I want to keep the guy, but he may not like being a depth player unless Taylor retires.

Should stay but we will see.

 

[eth-dog]

Looking forward to seeing how young Noah Gown goes against him this week.

No thanks too old, at least need to be around GhS and Murdoch age.

 

[Ambrosia]

If a side could get him fit for a long enough period he'd be a bargain pick up as he can definitely play.

Hawthorn would surely be interested and could be handy for North if Thompson retires.

Would be a chance to even get delisted

He will get offered a contract but I suspect a club with needs like the Dogs , a club with dollars like the Dogs could offer him an incentive based contract that is far more appealing..

Its a fair point but list management is getting more and more short sighted ...

Doubt it but he's out injured so re-assess once fit. I expect us to offer him 1yr.

 

[King Cold]

It'll be interesting to see what Lachie does come season's end, who was the last player to play at 4 different clubs over his career? I'm guessing that it would be Ben Hudson?

Hudson was the last. Most was Kickett.

What would his trade value be?

 

[year of the cat]

What would his trade value be?

Very little. Pick in the 40’s or 50’s I’d say at best.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

What would his trade value be?

3rd/4th rounder at best due to age and injuries.

 

[Wojcinski]

3rd/4th rounder at best due to age and injuries.

Agreed with this. People do seem to forget how good Hendo was in 2016 and 2017, pity about the injuries.

 

[foxdog50]

Still up in the air??? I wonder if we will give him a contract... With 4 good picks and atm 3 spots to fill on the list ( 2 1st rounds & 2nd rounds ) looking slim.. Only possible is if they delist a contracted player like St Kilda did today

 

[Hamingja]

I'm leaning to him staying now. If either party wanted out then surely we would have done a sweetheart deal during trade week to get him to whereever he wanted to go for pick 90. While he has dropped off a bit there is always someone looking for key position depth.

 

[year of the cat]

Surely he has to go. Keeping one old age KPD is enough.

You have to look on the other side then, why haven't they signed him up?

They would have put discussions off until after the trade period because we didn't know our salary cap position. If TK trade had fallen through then we might have had to find $800k from somewhere and Henderson would have been a casualty for sure.

We currently have 3 position vacant on our main list, with good draft picks. Don't get me wrong I want to resign him but each day goes pass it's not looking good for him

he looked finished the Prelim against Richmond. Hardly touched it an all he managed to do was wrestle with Grimes in the goal square a couple of times.

the dude should retire gracefully right now. He's had a good career.

Poor call.
Worthy of a list spot, just not sure how we find one.
