Trying to think who Ollie Henry reminds me of - the closest I can come up with is Jack Riewoldt. Not a big brutish forward but dangerous in the air and pretty good at ground level

We should destroy them, but I guess we're going back to what we know... defense 1st. So don't know if we'll see a huge score? This WILL be North's GF game this year.. trust me.. so if we don't get a hold of them early watch out.
Either us by 5+ goals, or them under 10 points.

If our core senior group of Pendles, Sidey, Moore, DeGoey, Mihocek, Grundy & Crisp can control their opponents and win their battles then we will win this by 4 or 5 goals. However, if they all snooze their way through this game it may be over at half time. The Roos were very good for a half last week and we cannot drop our guard.
This is a coin toss. Pies by 14 points, kicking a few late goals to salvage the win. Let's just pray that Stevo doesn't tear us a new one.

Ollie Henry takes freakish marks usually contested ones I might add

Yeah, watching him in the VFL I've been very impressed at his sticky hands. He's a one grab mark. I doubt he'll ever be tall enough to be a key forward, but as a 3rd marking forward, he's got all the skills. We won't see the best of him, however, until he stacks on a bit more muscle. |

Normally I would be expecting us to win by 6+ goals but under the current circumstances I would just be happy with the 4pts.
I like that we are rotating the younger guys like Henry, McCrae etc.
It gives them a bit of exposure to that higher level without burning them out.

The kids if managed and taught correctly are our hope for a flag (or more)

Tend to agree but the Roos at $3.30 was too good to pass up. I feel like this will be a 2019 game. We’ll battle with only a goal in it for most of the game then control the last 20 minutes to win reasonably comfortably.

He reminds me of WHE’s ability to mark before he lost form. |

While I’m reluctant to even utter John Greenings name in the same conversation as Ollie Henry, he does possess similar strengths to the great man. Quick off the mark, evasive, balanced, good in the air for a player who isn’t a key forward and knows where the goals are. It’s a rare mix to be so strong in the air when those other qualities are also your part of your skill set.
If he’s half the player Greening was, we will have done well.
Don’t hang me for the comparison. I was simply trying to relate to a Collingwood player we could all identify with. |
