List Mgmt. Welcome To The Hawks - Jaime Uhr-Henry - Category B Rookie

[GinniAndTonic]

EX-BASKETBALLER HEADED TO HAWKS​

FORMER basketballer Jaime Uhr-Henry will join Hawthorn's AFL list in 2025 as a Category B rookie.

The 21-year-old was a member of the Bulleen Boomers and the Dandenong Ranges in NBL One.

Uhr-Henry has spent some time training with Sam Mitchell's squad at Waverley Park in recent weeks and grew up as a Hawthorn supporter.

The 209cm is a project ruck who played some junior football for East Ringwood in the Eastern Football League, but focused predominantly on basketball.

Uhr-Henry hasn't played a game of football since under-17 level, but the Chirnside Park product was scouted by Hawks recruiting boss Mark McKenzie and becomes the latest former basketballer to land in the AFL.

 

[Flukey!]

Welcome Jaime.

You picked a great time to join our mighty club.

 

[GinniAndTonic]

Jesus.

He's marked as 209cm but that wingspan has to he closer to 220cm. Those are some insanely long arms. Kid is all limbs.

 

[The Kipster]

Welcome aboard young Hawker, I wish you, much success in the brown and gold.

Nash just wasn’t a big enough mid for us

 

[MasterSamurai]

I swear to God for a fleeting moment I thought the header read, jammara Ugle- Hagan to Hawks! Been 7 hours behind AEST , it was what I call an interesting wake up call for a split second. Anyway, good luck young man, we have our own JUH!

 

[cryptor]

Cool prospect. Pretty skinny, wonder if he’ll fill out much.

Could always jump on the opposing rucks head like Chol.

 

[matey]

Any pics of him standing next to the Wiz!

 

[Flukey!]

He comes from a great club - Bulleen Templestowe
I played my junior footy there.

can come from a basketball background in a foreign country and not even know how to spell AFL, then JUH is as good a chance as anyone from a basketball background to make it.

How big are his hands though

 

[mustang]

Does the game still suit this kind of ruckman.

Which one is he?

Any pics of him standing next to the Wiz!

A very mobile big that gets amongst transition. Yes absolutely

It am guessing it will take at least 2 seasons to get any indication on the return of the Club’s investment

 

[Agent Smith]

Someone just remind him he doesn't have to bounce the ball after every step, and he can't call a timeout whenever he wants.

Apart from that, it's all good. You go slam dunk that sherrin, JUH!

Corey Maynard didn't make it. But he was a footballer not a ruckman.

 

[MrPremiership]

Wonder what the club sees here. Would think the experience and time with Ned Reeves gives them an interesting viewpoint
