Beau Henry anyone?

Maybe im clutching at straws but no one seems to be mentiong this bloke.I know hes on a wenty based contract but so is luke kelly therefore hes entitled to eligibility just as much as that myth kelly.Not much fanfare in the way hes linked up with us but i've been keen to catch as much wenty coverage as possible just to keep a close eye on him and yes hes been certainly been quite impressive without being brilliant.His most recent performance was a televised match against the cutters and for those who missed it i can tell you he threw two 30 metre cutout balls that hit his wingers on the chest to send them over untouched his goalkicking was good and ran 60 metres to single handedly stop a certain try with great desperation only inches from the tryline.The urgency he showed with this chase has been non existent throughout the NRL squad.Definetely a massive upgrade than kelly which allows him to be relegated with a player with the same scenario.Forty 20 can probably a better insight on him but from view i say chuck him the 6 jersey and give a shot.People might remember that he was the toyota cup player of the year in 2009.This acheivement in itself shows that he obviously posseses some talent.

" Looking at the storm side they definitely lack the quality of previous years and having a rookie Backrower and centre on 1 side hopefully we can take advantage.
I can't wait to see the combination of Pezet and Kautoga develop but tonight I think…"

"Out of all of them Galvins the one that we really wanted they put 7 figures in front of him and years to boot for that guy and it still wasn't enough.It would have given you a long term window of 3-4 years with Iongi Smith/TDS Moses and Galvin by…"

"I think we need to just stop making public statements about going after players. We would have had a price limit here and clearly he priced us out of the market. No big deal really. I would much rather see what our juniors can do alongside our…"

Kelly is not contracted to Wenty, he is contracted to Parra.

He'd be a hell of a lot better option than what was dished up last night. He'd be keen to be involved for starters, with an actual skill set . An improvement on last night.

He will bring more than the crap Kelly. Put taka a five eight and semi to centre.

I can give my opinion on that combination, but better still ask Forty or Ham. They'll tell you how that worked for Wenty.
hindy July 18, 2015 at 10:39am

Unfortunately that is Kelly good or bad

I agree if Salary Cap & regulations permit, re Henry is a Wenty player & 30/6 is behind us, otherwise I guess we r stuck with Kelly & Sandow for the rest of 2015 now that Norman is injured.

IMO 2015 is goneski & my big concern is that we will re-sign dud Kelly for 2016 as a cheap backup. I still fail to understand how signing a proven dud is really a viable backup option in case of injury. It means that u plan to replace an injured or suspended FG half with proven rubbish.

Yes yes yes if he is eligible

A spine of robo peats sandow degois is what I see happening if norman is out, however taka did have a strong game yesterday and didnt look out of place in his limited minutes af 5/8
