I hope he gets Goal of the Year. Great 1st year player to have and looks primed to play well on the big stage

How often do you see players (a lot of experienced players don't) use their opposite leg? First year player, left foot hits tit! Was very good last night!

The kick to setup caddys goal in the 4th? Sensational!

Simply steps up at every level he's ever played and has done so from an early age. The greater the stakes, the better he plays

This bloke's mid-air snatch of that Hawk's handball was just pure intelligence.

Gun footballer this kid. Has already gone well past Butler, and now Castagna. Him and Rioli are our two most damaging small forwards. Will be very hard for Butler to get back in unless we play 4 small fowards, or any of Stengle, Bolton or Baker for that matter...

Admittedly Higgins can play more roles tho. Not bad covering the ground, surprisingly solid overhead etc. His work rate is brilliant.

The way he anticipated where Morrison's handball was going rather than attacking the man with the ball would put him in the top 10% in terms of football I.Q.
You simply cannot teach that. Ever. It's instinct.
You add running ability and work rate and voila! You have a potential gun on our hands
