Jack Higgins traded to the Saints [Official]

[Francois Jackson]

actually if it wasnt for him they wouldnt have even got close.

[Chuck17]

Cost the Saints the game with 1.6 missing several sitters from set shots including one from 35 out straight in front with 1min to go. 

Played very well but his kicking is ordinary.  Lacking confidence.

No wonder we got rid of him, we got Castanga for that

[WilliamPowell]

I don't know why people are surprised

His set shot goal kicking has always been average at best

[The Machine]

Why are we talking about this bloke? Has never been able to hit the side of a barn they can have him

[mightytiges]

He was up there as the Saints' best player again tonight but once again he missed another chance in the last quarter to kill off and win the game.

Confirmed by RFC

we get pick 17 this years draft and future 2nd rounder (2021)

Saints get Higgins, pick 21 and future 4th rounder

It's a win

That 2nd rounder is currently pick 24. Thanks Saints  .

[Rampsation]

Thats not a bad pick at all lol.

[tdy]

Saints are being run by a bunch of goons. Ratten will be gonski in a year. Thinks they are finals material now, fool he is.

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Jack is a dog for leaving us and deserves the saints. I am hoping some of our other currently listed players are watching Brando, Butts and Higgo while thinking carefully about their next move

[Diocletian]

Yeah doubt any of them will be nominating St.Kilda...

David King believes Saints gun Jack Higgins was dropped for the team’s crucial clash with Sydney because too often “Jack plays on Jack’s terms.”

St Kilda omitted Higgins, who’s the club’s second leading goalkicking this season with 19 majors, in a bold selection statement after its shock 35-point loss to Essendon last week.

It comes after Higgins was touted as an All-Australian contender earlier this season with 14 goals through the opening six rounds, while he’s since kicked five majors from as many games.

Well Higgins walked out on us on his terms so some may say no real surprise.

I can't remember the reasons but we possibly should've kept him. 

Anyone remember why he left?

Was it money or was it Dimma?

Some players just feel entitled.
If he was loyal and patient he'd be getting regular games in the seniors but I think he just couldn't handle not getting regular games in a Premiership dynasty team.

There was another rumour as to why
