Did I hear correctly that Jack said he lost 8kgs in 1 day, also that he was having trouble reading texts etc.
I hope he recovers completely & is back at his best in the very near future.

Higlet is a gun. Massive footy IQ and occasionally a genius. Not going anywhere.

Jack has kicked the most creative goal ever seen on a football field.
Footy IQ is off the charts. One touch player.
Healthwise I'm very glad he's going to be ok & am glad his goal is to get back for round 1.
Eat em alive Higgo!

TT that’s right.
Think that was at the start!

Only a few players stood up in the 18 PF and Jack H was one of them! That was his first year.

It’ll be a huge comeback for him to become a regular, consistent AFL footballer from here I feel.

Jack will be back. Got 500 thousand Tiger supporters Australian wide watching his back. Will receive the biggest cheer in 2020 when he kicks his first sausage on the G.

So who’s place does he take in the side?
Well number 1, he has good endurance and could play on a wing. OR Alternatively, we could move someone like Marlion to the wing and Higgins take his spot.
There's lots of alternatives, one only has to use their brain.

Just looking at his highlights, by far my favorite is against the Hawks when he reads the Hawks players mind and intercepts the handball.

Brilliant stuff. Just wish he could have kicked the goal instead of handballing to Caddy.

Smart footballer. The brain thing affected his form for sure.

Can you imagine Rance Higgins Stack Pickett running out together R1? Will be insane.

Just watched the interview highlights tape with Jack . What a fantastic character! Really hope he gets back to footy in great shape; Yet another Tiger who keeps the turnstiles clicking and he is obviously much loved by the playing group.
