Note to the selectors. Do not drop this kid to VFL again. He’s the spirit the forward line needs. He and Kako are our future.

Vice like tackling was superb today. I missed the first half but he seems more effective than Kako at the moment who from what I saw is still very fumbly and doesn’t stick his tackles like Huss does. Kako more assets to be a star though with his speed, but a very impressive first year in the AFL from Huss.

He is one of my favourites already. So humble and clearly coachable. Some great pressure today. Has to stay in.

Tbf to the selectors, it could be said that dropping him is what caused this defensive turnaround.

That said, I agree. Kids a jet.

I like this guy

Gives me Jack Higgins vibes and I mean that as a compliment, just good forward sense

Yeah, I don’t see a big issue in dropping a kid to work on a part of their game, as long as you reward them when they do what’s asked. Huss did that and Solly rewarded him and it paid off.

We might be able to pick up El Souki in the draft who is very much a similar type to Huss, and probably better

Would be good if dogs use all their picks on butters as expected. I really like neoclues too as a small.

Well we might be picking Arki now we have pick 2. Could be no need for Marlon or El Souki

Such an awesome effort winning a 2 vs 1. Made even sweeter when his fellow class of 25 members in Farrow and Robey combined to capitalise and kick the goal.

Don’t rate Higgins. Every time I see him he is getting the ball out the back after his team mates do all the hard work

Has a bit of Deano Rioli about him. He’s very one touch and makes his possessions count.he’s effort today was incredible. A couple more preseasons and watch out.

Felt like he was everywhere. His tackles stuck like glue

His ability to keep his feet in the contest is very very good

Higgins is almost at Josh Jenkins level with the Joe the Gooses (or is it Joes the Geese)
