Player Watch Ned McHenry - Delisted

[SugarShane]

Would have kept him over murphy to be honest.

Murphy is 5 times the footballer Ned is. And Murphy is not a footballer's arseh*le.

I've seen Murphy kick goals, I've seen Murphy hit targets. It's not common, but it's happened. Neither should be in the team, but Murphy is the lesser of the evils. Plus Ned was OOC and Murphy wasn't which basically made the call for them.

Im just looking at the 2018 phantom draft just before the national draft..

It had us taking Caldwell with our pick 10 and at pick 16 it had us picking Butters

Then at 19 which i believe we traded? it had us taking Ned:

 

[Cromulant]

I like Ned the human, he's an insanely upbeat bloke who knew pretty quickly he needed to organise his life after footy which it sounds like he's done.

He'll be forever attached to the draft pick he was taken at, and that's unfair.

But it is what it is

May still have an opportunity to play at AFL level but doesnt know for sure. In discussions...

But Most interesting was:

Not bitter could see the writing on the wall for months

Really rates Tim Silvers but wasnt so glowing about anyone else in the administration. The silence was deafening.

Really thinks the wins will come next year with the list now being built. Thinks they are on the right track despite this year.

Keays is working at a level above everyone else in terms of his professionalism training diet etc

Given the love for re-drafting with hindsight it's always worth looking at the "if not him" in things like this. Can't say overly devestated to not have Taylor or Duursma. Briggs be nice but presumably GWS would have matched.

If we didn’t rate NED and the draft depth, we could have done what Port did and trade up.

So there’s no hindsight about it, this is a pure talent identification error, again with another first rounder.

Funnily enough I wonder at times if we just wait for Twomey to do his phantom draft before we decide our first round draft picks. Both our huge errors with McAsey and McHenry Twomey made.

If Twomey gives us Draper or Lalor in his final Phantom Draft, it'll be a very good sign

 

[glengowan]

With his farms, fishing, media and personality, he'll do well outside of footy. Would be a good get as the Crows SANFL captain if he was willing and it could be tied in with his other commitments.

I would be surprised if we go to the draft with pick #4 and Draper is available at our pick and we go past him. I dont think that would happen.

 

[Crow till I die]

will his kids qualify for f/s?. He has officially made it to 100....bf thread pages

 

[TBM]

I would be fuming if that happened.

 

[adelaidecrows]

I would be fuming if that happened.

The Crows under Olsen are the feel good PR club. So picking the best SA boy will 100% happen if there is a chance.

 

[D Style]

My best memory of Ned was that game we won as underdogs against a high flying Melbourne.

Ned had the ball when the siren went and booted it into the members.

I loved him in that R1 upset of Geelong. He was an absolute pest in that game.

He's just a likeable bloke and we should be doing everything to keep him involved with the club......taking over Shuttleworth's role for starters.

Exactly why keays should be one of the vice captains

But it is what it is

True but it was the Jones over Butters pick that really hurt that year. Not much else of note went immediately after Ned either but some decent picks later on like Bobby Hill

Didn’t he play “tough guy” one game going and targeting and bumping a player with an already dodgy shoulder or similar?

Not a good luck and not sure Ned is really the “enforcer” type. This sort of thing doesn’t really happen much anymore which is fine with me as it’s a pretty poor look

Didn't he try and rough up Max Gawn?
