Higgins..

Higgo looked a bit better this week, a decent score in a well beaten side, I'm hoping this is a sign that they are managing the issue.

Still clearly hampered and not spreading well for marks but that's classic groin issue (no burst speed). I actually thought he cracked in pretty well.

Glad I kept him think he'll come good. Outscored Bartel :P

You have to back him. Sure he wont avergae 100, but if he can average 85 that is a good result. Im holding him, not worth the trade.

that's basically how I approached it, still think he could have some patches of good form and we wont see too many 29's from him. Was amazed by the level of over reaction last week so really hoping he goes well

Yeh...I was going to swap him into the mids and upgrade him to Murphy so a bit sore about that but probably in the long run would have been a wasted trade.
