Henshaw was a tough defender and played in either the back pocket or half back flank for North Melbourne during the 1970s and into the early 1980s. An attacking defender who teamed with David Dench, Frank Gumbleton, Ken Montgomery, Denis Pagan, Gary Farrant and Gary Cowton, to be part of one of the best defensive line ups for its era.
