[Rod Stroker]

I like Henry but he's not worth a first rounder. His decision making is suspect and his kicking is inconsistent, plus he's out of contract.

I think we need more depth on the wing and with outside run generally, so I'd definitely explore the possibility of trading for him, but a 1st rounder is wishful thinking from Fremantle I reckon.

Spot on

 

[The Warlord]

It is Dodo doing Dodo things. He is after a seemingly cheap kill. Hence, why I strongly believe this will fall through if it ever got to a trade request.

I think he's after headlines and distraction.

Ball magnet?

Ball sack more like it.

 

[Mejekdraw]

Fun fact Tarryn has an * tattoo on him from when he was younger..

 

[Sphynx]

Henry is a massive ball butcher.

He has some of the worst disposal % and turnover rates of his position in the league.

He’s made massive strides, but people need to be prepared for his shortcomings and kicking is definitely it.

 

[Colby Cheer Squad]

Have you seen our players?
They don't even defend each other when someone's getting targeted by opposition's.

Big Footy: our players don't stick up for each other when getting targetted by opposition.

Nekminnit Kayne Turner and/or Jy Simpkin give away a 50 metre penalty for flying the flag to defend a team mate being targetted by opposition.

Big Footy: our players are idiots for giving away a 50 metre penalty for flying the flag to defend a team mate being targetted by opposition.

So who are we walking to the PSD this time?

Its time to draw the line in the sand. Hack kicks and/or plodders shall not pass! Gotta be able to run. Gotta be able to kick.

 

[Tas]

Hmmm, Henry has better disposal efficiency than Scott. :stern look

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Did Clarko set that up?

No it was King Corey.

Oh wait did you mean…

 

[Liam Boy]

Fun fact Tarryn has an * tattoo on him from when he was younger..

Surely that's a North Launceston Bombers tattoo, not Essendon.

 

[Makeshift Park]

Dylan Stephens has better kicking efficiency than both of them.

 

[Tas]

Just saying.

If people start bandying around the ball butcher tag, then people will have to accept their inner-Nostradamus.

 

[Hojuman]

So who are we walking to the PSD this time?

McKay !

 

[The acurate one]

So just caught up
We have Nat draft picks

1. 2 for finishing 17th
2. 3 for Magoo PP
3. 4 Draft assistance
4. 5 Part of TT trade involving a multitude of clubs
5. 16 Poort pick.


So we take Curtin, Mckercher, O'sullivan, Watson and Sanders & Henry as other part of TT deal.

We win the drafts again.

 

[Makeshift Park]

The flipside is that Bailey Smith makes all three players' kicking look like Sheezel's.

 

[Better Loosen Up]

Morris says we're interested in Liam Henry and Freo expect a high teens pick for him. That's way overs for him.

I'd rather just draft McKercher. Will be a better wingman than Henry will ever be.

 

[Makeshift Park]

He has some of the worst disposal % and turnover rates of his position in the league.

Its an interesting assertion. What metrics are you basing this on?

He won two or three sr flags with them didn't he?

 

[Tas]

He comes from the Polec school of precise kicking.

 

[Harris 10]

Henry is the perfect PSD candidate, Freo will want overs and he wants out of WA ruling out the Eagles.

Welcome to North young Henry

Isn’t he an inside mid

I think you need to factor how much players are getting the contested ball, harder to hit targets when you are under the pump.

For example, Simpkin has a 42.5% rate, Henry has 25% rate, so 3/4 of his possessions are uncontested so he should be under less pressure.

Another is distance and meters gained, easier to hit kicks sideways and easier to hit short kicks, harder to hit long kicks.

It isn't precise, but I like to divide meters gained by kicks to gauge how long they go, unless an extreme handballer like cunners, I would imagine handballs provide a negligible amount of distance.

Henry would average 25.3m per kick, Simpkin 27.6
Dangerfield has a 51.7% contested possession rate and a 34.2m per kick, you would want to be a lot more accurate than someone who is constantly under the pump and kicking longer.

Correct
