He was gone after two years... on draft night.

If he plays against the pies next year someone give him the same welcome Dennis banks gave Rhys -Stanley back in the early 90’s that day at the mcg.
Rather hands on if I recall .

I would put 16 on the table for an F1, offer it to the bottom 14 sides of this year and see who bites.

I dunno, I got this feeling that he’ll play his guts put & get selected in their senior side.
I really don’t think he put in 100% at CFC as he didn’t wanna be here.

Hope I’m wrong & they drop him like hot potato but.

I suspect you're right Cam. In hindsight, it's now clear that selecting him was a costly mistake.
The question is, was it an avoidable mistake? Did our recruitment team fail to ask the right questions when they interviewed him before the draft? Or did the kid just straight out lie to them in the interview?
Or was it a case, that we knew how he felt but mistakenly thought we would be able to win him over before the two years were completed?

Whatever, it's another waste of a first round selection to add to the growing list of first round draft failures over the last 5-6 years.

I'm the same. I don't usually boo ex players either.

I'll make an exception for Henry.

I've just cut two eye holes out of a sheet so I can perfect my booing.

Hopefully my motivation doesn't get mistaken for something else.

How about we all chip in and buy Henry a farewell present.

Anyone know the going rate for Shane Stant?

a lying rat:
just to play with my bro;
want a different environment, nothing to do with the club;
will go to the PSD, never come back.

Geelong were like vaulters like a seagull to a chip regarding Henry quite disgusting and disgraceful pathetic

Maynard will do a Langdon and Jack Watts on him. The loud Booooooos he gets every time he goes anywhere near the pill, will rattle him and the ageing Handbaggers too. on the big MCG. Not on their precious peanut Kardinia park, where they can hide him.

i imagine other teams won't let him get away scott free either, hope he doesn't get upset by a bit of sledging

I’ve been through the seven stages of grief on this one. Geez, I liked him as a footballer. But where I come out is actually he is soft and lazy.

I felt gutted when Troy Lehman left to go to Brisbane. And see how that worked out.

I wouldn’t boo him. It sends a bigger message.
