Higgins has gone from comfortably the worst kick in the AFL to a relatively reliable set shot. How?

Just rest him if he isn’t fit. We have gained nothing from rushing him back
Just like King, should have played for Sandy. Not!

I'd rather 4 from captain Jack than 9 from Seb Ross

Sebby's going at 33% disposal efficiency RIGHT NOW

Ridiculous deliberate decision against Battle where the ball takes a right angle over the line

And now Higgins held for no free

Higgins tackled to the ground without touching the ball when running towards an open goal. Thoughts, Curly?

If he's lucky. As far as head knocks go this looks as bad as anything I've seen in a long time.

I see. Evidently the comments here are about Owens.

I hope the club lodges an official complaint on the sub standard of the surface.
Hopefully it's no more than a bad knock.


Think of me long enough to make a memory.
