Higgins stars in first preseason with North Melbourne Kangaroos
From the Age article "AFL teams return to pre-season training with injuries under control," published 3/1/15:
NORTH MELBOURNE
The preliminary finalists would have been very pleased with what they saw from former Bulldog Shaun Higgins in the lead-up to Christmas
Officially on the Bus-wagon

Re: Higgins stars in first preseason with North Melbourne Kangaroos
Honestly who cares?
A) Everyone "stars" in preseason.
B) We all know Higgo is a fairly good player.
C) We were compensated pretty well.
D) It was a good time for him to move on.
Good luck to him and North. They won't be challenging when we are ready.

Re: Higgins stars in first preseason with North Melbourne Kangaroos
He might be a better player with North but he never would have become that player with us. Much like Cooney he'll likely benefit from going to a club where he's not one of the top dogs in the change rooms (pardon the pun)

Re: Higgins stars in first preseason with North Melbourne Kangaroos
With all due respect, we have moved on and I for one don't care about ex players. There are about 12 playing for other clubs and I really don't want to know how they are travelling.

Thought you would be interested to hear that Higgins is having a great preseason.

Is that figure of 12 correct BAD? I was wondering how many ex bulldogs there were on other club's lists the other day, got about halfway through counting it all up and lost interest. Carlton had an quite a few ex bulldogs and players from other clubs full stop.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

That's the great thing about preseason, it doesn't require body contact or defensive efforts. Higgins was born to play preseason.

Really only 3(Ward, Harbrow and Griffin) are worth being upset about.
