I like Henry and I think he could still do a job for us next season, but I made the point previously that he's a very similar type of half to Oli. I thought we saw the best of Henry when Corey came in, but I guess you could say that about most the squad. Again Meadows is a similar type of half to Oli, so if we don't end up retaining Corey we still need an out and out 7.
Alternatively we put our faith in the Oli/Meadows partnership with a view to that being the way forward after next season. There's a finite amount of first grade level players available right now.
Forwards look like Butler, Beinek(?), Kennedy, Adibiyi, Stock, Williams, Waine, Storey, Lovell, Parata, Natoli, no idea on Albert, with Leyland and Davis. Putting aside quality, there are numbers there.
Beyond that are a bunch of player, who, granted helped get us promoted, but beyond Walker have no recent SL experience and several of whom have come from Skolars. There really is a lack of quality. Last time we went up Walker, Dixon, Kear, Morgan, Williams, Abdull, Smith / Cunningham .... where are these players equivalents plus the quality off the Pitts, Battye, Fozzard, Yates ,,,,
