Is it me or I have I missed the news of Beau Henry joining the eels (be that Wenty)? He's currently named for the Wenty team list on the bench.
If it is the same guy, he would be a better pick than Luke Kelly IMO.

Beau Henry is contracted to Wenty not the Eels.
Sounds like a quality player, if you go off his Wiki Bio. 25, so should be hitting his prime, though makes you wonder why he hasn't broken into 1st grade sooner...
Playing career
From 2008 to 2010, Henry played for the St. George Illawarra Dragons' NYC team, scoring over 400 points.[2]
At the end of 2009, Henry won the 2009 NYC Player of the Year award[3] and was named at halfback in the 2009 NYC Team of the Year.[4]
In 2009, Henry almost signed with the North Queensland Cowboys but was convinced not to by Dragons first-grade coach, Wayne Bennett. He played on with the Dragons in 2010 without yet making his NRL debut.
In June 2010, Henry signed a 3-year contract with the Newcastle Knights starting in 2011.[5]
In Round 1 of the 2011 season, Henry made his NRL debut for the Knights against the Penrith Panthers.[6][7] He scored a try on debut.
After the signing of Wayne Bennett to coach the Knights in 2012, Henry was told he was unwanted for the 2012 season. He was then released mid-season in 2011 to sign a 2 1⁄2-year contract with the Gold Coast Titans starting effective immediately.[8]
Henry made his Titans debut in Round 20 of the 2011 NRL season against the North Queensland Cowboys.[9]
In 2014, Henry re-signed with the Titans on a 1-year contract for the rest of the season.[10]
On 29 October 2014, Henry signed a 1-year contract to return to his original club, St. George Illawarra Dragons starting in 2015.[11][12]
In March 2015, Henry was released from his Dragons contract to join the Wentworthville Magpies in the New South Wales Cup.[13]
My bad thanks everyone for the info Gowey.
Sounds like a player with plenty of promise and not much delivered as yet.
He's got a massive noggin. Should get into coaching.
Yeah, that write up makes Bennett sound like such a wan*er !!
LOL... what food does he like?
