I saw enough from him to want to give him more opportunities. 

It's little wonder JT had his eye on him for a while.

    He is ready made, highly skilled, great work rate and hungry.

    You can't ask or get better than that.

    Great pick up along with his Werribee team mate AJ.

    Clean player with a good bit of agility and pace. Got caught out of position a bit on defensive transition but not unexpected for his first game. 

    Deserves more opportunity but will face a bit of competition with Spargo and Tholstrup once they return from their respective injuries.

    That competition for spots will be great.

    If Spargo can get back to his best, I'd certainly see him as the closeset competition to Henderson, but no doubt Tholstrup will also heat things up as he matures and gains in confidence.  Hendo looks to have that maturity, hardness and composure to play at the top level already sorted.

    If only he didn't slightly overcook that pass around the 25 second mark, it would have been the perfect centring kick and forward 50 entry. 

    Still great signs for me that he had the skills and awareness to make space for himself at half forward and then lower the eyes to hit up a great leading option and not just chip it deep into the pocket to get bottled up or a low percentage shot on goal.

    Also took whoever it was to be making the lead straight down the ground giving the option.  Noticed that Jefferson provided that several times for us and hopefully it is team directive in our game plan over the pre-season marking an improvement in how we move the ball into forward 50.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.

    • PREGAME: Geelong

      After a one-year reprieve, the Demons return down the freeway to Kardinia Park — the site of both one of our greatest triumphs and one of our darkest days — as they face the Cats under Friday night lights. This one could get ugly. Who comes in, and who comes out?
