RYAN Hendy takes great joy in dismantling opposition defenses and was at his damaging best again on Saturday. The 27-year-old star has been a Doveton boy all his life. He played all his junior footy with the Doveton Lions and then skipped the under 18s, progressing straight to the seniors as a 16-year old. He is now in his 11th season and has one premiership under his belt.
