[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 565946, member: 48703"] To be fair to Henson. Even though he has had some unnecessary prolonged absences in his career, sometimes through injury and sometimes through reality TV. He has always got back to a good level remarkably quickly. In 2011, when he was drafted into the Wales squad to play in the Summer matches before the World Cup I really felt that it was bad message for the other Welsh centres that he was fast tracked back having hardly played at all for Saracens/Toulon and been ditched by both and spent the other half of the season attempting to dance. However since then, either with Cardiff Blues or London Welsh, when he is on the pitch he still performs, even despite not having played much due to injury/B&B disliking him/off field incidents on planes. He is a consistent performer on the pitch, problem is just getting him more than a pinchful of games per season from him. He even made Dullonien's favourite player look quite good when playing with him for a brief stint. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8sTJj1q8Qr0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> [/QUOTE]
