Ricky Henderson

Thinking of offloading Ellis, moving Staker back and Bringing in Henderson. What are your thoughts? Good POD, Adelaide have awesome run home and a great 5 game average? Dangerfield coming back may be only negative.

oh and also offers me DPP with Staker

If you are relying on him and Staker to play each week I say no but if they are your D7 and F7 go for it. I have Ricky on that basis not for the DPP (although it is a bonus as I can switch the 2)with Staker but for strong bench coverage. Both Players can ton it up and should average 80/90 for the rest of the year which is sound bench cover.

hmmm, really, i was hoping on him as a F6 - his last 5 average is better than most other choices - plus the run home seems great for picking Crows players?

In saying that I will be probably playing him over Gray this week as well. If only relying on one of Staker/Henderson then feasible but would not rely on playing both each week.

hmmm - if not him who would be a good choice D6 (already have Walker, Martin, Johnson, Rockliff, Franklin, and Cox now in Rucks)?

his lat 5 ave is so high because the 160 v gee i believe he kicked the goal that put adel in front to win the game and woulde been scaled massively. more realistic ave would be around the 100-105 mark, which is still good, just dont get carried away.

I doubt he will keep up his good scoring. If he does I'd be surprised. I'm not bringing him now. Missed his good scores.. I can see him going back to his inconsistent ways by finals time..

Hope not! Just brought him in on information he has taken over Reilly's role? Seems to be relishing in it. Don't see how it would change unless Reilly returns or Sanderson changes his role.

It was Wright who kicked the go-ahead goal for the Crows. Henderson didn't kick any goals in that game, just had a very good game.

I'd be worried that Henderson might be used forward this week given the injuries to Jenkins and McKernon. He has kicked 6 goals in a Showdown before :o
