    There's every chance Dev Robertson gets significant overs to go back home and play regular senior footy.
    I think he makes them better.

          What are they asking for him?

            no mention of that, just that he is likely to head to Vic

            I like Liam. I bought two of his ties and suggested he make bandanna's!

                  Henry coming off a career best game on the wing on the weekend. I guess we will get to see him up close on Saturday.

                    It will be interesting to see how he performs against us this weekend.
                    He's been in and out of the team but capable of some brilliant football.

                    I was just looking at a heat map of his from the last game and it looks like he got a lot of possessions in the back line or wing.

                      Played wing but his defensive teammates praised him for getting back and helping them out. He also had 4 inside 50s so sounds like he was covering a lot of ground (32 possessions and 514 metres gained).

                        Thanks, I wasn't sure where he lined up but the heat map indicated he got most of his possessions across half back.

                          He played well but to say he was due is the understatement of the century.
                          What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

                            Top 10 pick, 4th year in the system. Why has he struggled to make an impact thus far in his career?

                              Doesn't run, wont stick his head over it. HARD PASS on signing up for the Liam Henry experience. Yes - he was good last week vs the Bombers but if you have 32 touches and your previous best was 21, what numbers should you be focussing on when considering whether or not to recruit a player to become part of your midfield.

                                Thanks. Will be interesting to see if this was a breakout game or a false dawn.
