Oppo Camp Oliver Henry (Traded to Geelong 2022)

[DWil6]

He certainly wasn’t their worst. Kicked 2 and should have had 3 but for awareness or lack of talk from his team mates who were right there watching the tackle unfold (Close). Got a fair bit of ball. Marking looked good too. Plays tall. I wouldn’t be disappointed with his performance if I was a cats fan.
The only thing left to debate is whether the trade worked out in our favour. So far it’s too early to tell.

He wanted out. Rarely gonna get market rate in a trade. I think we did well considering.

Yes too early to tell but on face value mitchell was more influential than henry

 

[Frogs]

Loved how Moore spoke to him after the siren. He is a good kid. Hopefully a good player. Wish he stayed with us and while I felt sour at the time you've gotta let people go where they want. Happy we pumped the cats though!

God I can't stand him

He is a Total Flog as he showed last night

Got Mitchell in the Trade as he was one of our Bests last night

 

[joff]

Was a pretty classy effort on Ollie the lads roughed him up and he's obviously a bit of a different lad he copped his lumps and a few of the lads had a yarn to him at the end Good job all round I think

Geelong will obviously get more years out of Ollie than we get out of Tom, but Tom might just be this year's Luke Ball

People don’t seem to understand this

We got Ed Allan too while they had to give up cooper Stephens and a ton of 2023 draft selections

 

[SchuPie]

you've gotta let people go where they want.

Then why have a draft?

 

[SchuPie]

Didn’t we get Allan w our own first-rounder and nothing to do w OH?

 

[Chrispiesssss]

 

[Frogs]

Then why have a draft?

They're separate issues.

Ryan I think the Pick we used from that Trade

IMO the biggest difference to our game last night over 2022 was the number of clearances we won … and Tom Mitchell was a big part of that.

And given that we got Mitchell and pick 24 for Henry and two junk picks in the 40’s, we would seem to be well well ahead on the trade so far.

 

[HFF]

To celebrate in the manner that he did….the karma bus got him…

 

[GreekLunatic]

His big ears celebration was uncalled for good he got tackled and driven into the ground

 

[Chrispiesssss]

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Bruhn and Henry are best buddies, their plan was always to go back to Geelong and rekindle their bromance.

 

[rand corp]

He had a decent game last night and is a very talented young player. That's why it's burns so much seeing him go, but you can't hold it against him forever. Got that first game out of the system and whilst I don't look forward to him blossoming into having a fine career, I won't hate the kid for it if he does.

 

[sr36]

Can we start referring to Ollie as jazz hands?

The thing with Ollie is for all his skill he is as soft as they come.

Got better as the game went on despite a bit of physical targeting. Don't think he's soft.

 

[sr36]

Didn’t we get Allan w our own first-rounder and nothing to do w OH?

Yeah, it was Ryan we got.

 

[Masked Magician]

I have no sympathy for Henry and this is why.

If he came out last year through his management and made the following clear:

• I have nothing against collingwood, the players or the coach.
• I’m struggling and want to head home to Geelong and live out a childhood dream to play with my brother

Everyone would’ve been upset but understood, instead him and his manager came out with the following:

• the money was not good enough
• worried about his spot because of mcstay coming in (at this time we had not even signed mcstay)
• not happy being out of the best 22 throughout 2022

Bad advice from his management and his manager is to blame for the hostilities directed towards Ollie, of which I par took in.

Good riddance, you’re either with us or against us under fly, a great indicator of the ruthless culture fly has created.

That's shouldn't be the case. It's when we push out players that want to stay is when we don't get market rate. If we can't get market rate (let alone overs) for a player we want to keep we must be the only club that can never get market rate for our players under any circumstance.

Look at what other clubs manage to get for players that want out (Jackson, Dunkley, Hopper, Taranto, Bruhn etc)
