Henry delivered 67 in St Kilda's 52-point home loss to Hawthorn at Docklands — 40 points above his 27 BE and a strong bounce-back from the 34-point R10 that triggered the sell verdict. At $184k with cash gen now positive at $1,013/week, the pricing story is turning around. But the inconsistency remains the concern: 88 (R8), 56 (R9), 34 (R10), 67 (R12) is a boom-bust pattern, and the R10 sell verdict was built on Higgins and Ryan returning to press his forward spot. He's held his place and performed, but one good game doesn't permanently secure a role in a team underperforming. Watch — the scoring ceiling is there but the pattern needs to stabilise before any buy recommendation.
