Found this preview on AFL insider... a bit different from most of the others. Personally I think the Dogs are locked onto Henderson but if they decide McEvoy is a better bet (& pure key forward) then Henderson may slide.

AFL Mock Draft 2007 - Pick 9, St Kilda
October 23rd 2007 06:43
9. St Kilda - Lachlan Henderson
Tall Forward. 196cm, 90kg. Geelong/Geelong College
Possible comparison: He is a bit like Lachlan Hansen, with his name and his game, but a bit bigger.
Why: Gehrig, Hamill, Brooks and Watts are all gone from their list. The Saints need another big forward, Riewoldt is great but he does need some help. Koschitzke could start in the ruck, and Henderson could join Riewoldt in the forward line. When Koschitzke goes forward, if the Saints need a more mobile ruckman than King then Henderson could also help in that spot for a few minutes at a time.
Worth a reach: Jack Grimes, he would bring everything that Coach Lyon wants a midfielder to have.
Hope they slide: Rhys Palmer has a few of the qualities that Robert Harvey does, so he wouldn't be a bad choice to bring in to be his successor in the midfield.
Selected at pick 9 in the 2006 AFL draft:
David Armitage (St Kilda, midfielder)

Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.
