Ben Henry

[BradfordBull]

Im hearing Rumours that we are set to announce his capture on a 2 or 3yr deal.

Hoping to have him as a replacement for Keith Lulia who is heading to West's Tigers.

Unlikely.

 

[Mixmasterreece]

His 'capture'? What is he a f**king Pokemon?

 

[NZ Warrior]

I choose you, Ben Henry!

Ah shit, I lost!!!

 

[hitman82]

Hmm I doubt that, as he is very highly rated here and seen as Mannering 2.0 with ball skills. Hope not anyway!

:lol:

How would you go about capturing Ben Henry anyway? A giant net? A hole in the ground covered by a blanket covered by leaves? Leaving some Hansan in a mousetrap?

I prefer to capture my players with a harpoon gun, but they don't perform very well afterwards

More likely Siua Taukieaho lol.

Maybe they said a backrower who has played centre for Warriors.
Came to the conclusion that meant Ben Henry.

Fat chance!

Benry is seen as a future captain and is even part of the leadership group along with Mannering, Ropati, Rapira and Vatuvei. He's a vital cog in our future Premiership aspirations and the club will jump through hoops of fire and walk on water to keep him.

Anyway, he's signed to the end of 2015 so you'll just have to wait...

benrys shit i hope they take him

still vividly remember him laughing after the 60 point pumping from the panthers. also laughing was bill tupou and looked what happened to him

^get over it bro. With Elijah Taylor going we've got as hole to fill in the back row stocks, I'm hoping Benry steps up to that particular challenge. Don't really want to see him in the centres long term, We've got much better options there now.

I doubt Lowrie will be going anywhere and Bukuya>Henry. Especially Henry coming off a knee reconstruction.

 

[hitman82]

There's going to be a sweet forward pack in the Vulcans next season.

Benry will be tipped to have a big future here now Taylor has gone. I know everyone is sick of defensive tackle bot back rowers but they are needed and Henry would be one i'd definately keep long term.

He'll be groomed to take over after Mannering (far down the track of course). Good head on his shoulders, probably well liked by coaches too, just seems like that kind of guy.

He'll bulk up over the next couple of years and turn into a 80 minute lock and a leader but probably spend until then as a bench back rower and/or stand in centre, not really offering much and having fans question his place in the team. I think we need to be patient with Benry (as does he) and reep the rewards later.

He's complete Simon Mannering clone.

 

[Rebel]

Have never really rated him tbh. Wouldn't be too fussed if he left. We have better impact 2nd rowers in the wings. Lousi, Ikahahifo etc

 

[Fufu Andronez]

^^^Henry > Ikahihifo by a country mile.
