Fremantle wingman Liam Henry is still weighing up his future and will attract significant interest from Victorian clubs, according to leading journalist Mitch Cleary.
The 21-year-old had a career-best performance against Essendon, finishing with a career-high 32 disposals, 25 kicks and eight marks.
Cleary pointed out the Western Bulldogs, Melbourne and St Kilda as three teams who could be right in the mix.
“He’s still weighing up whether he wants to stay at that footy club and there’s going to be a heap of offers,” he told the Tradies Podcast.
“I want to talk about three (clubs) in Victoria. Clubs that I think will have a look and clubs are looking for outside speed and dash.
“The Bulldogs, their wings are a concern. He’s got a relationship with Jamarra Ugle-Hagan, so that’s something for the Bulldogs to consider.
“They’ve got the extra first round pick this year thanks to the deal for Josh Dunkley and they’ll look to get rid of those because they’ve got Matthew Croft’s son that they’ll have to move picks on and get a bit flexible with. There’s talk he could go (in the first round).
“Then you’ve got Melbourne. They’ve secured Kozzie Pickett. Kozzie has a relationship with Liam Henry and an extra first round pick as part of the Luke Jackson trade, ironically from Fremantle.
“And then St Kilda. Stephen Silvagni was at Carlton when the Blues bid on Liam Henry in the draft. SOS is now at the Saints. A bit of outside dash, with a decision still to come on Jade Gresham who is weighing up his footy future, keep an eye on the Saints for Liam Henry.”
Henry was selected with pick nine in the 2019 National Draft and has played the 34 games, struggling to lock down a spot in Freo’s best 22 until the last few weeks.
