NEWS: Higgins has frustrated fantasy owners for more years than we can remember. Wow he is a talent! But he is fragile. Oh so fragile. If he could get through 22 rounds he has the potential to average over 100 a game. But don't count on this happening. All he will likely do is cause more grief than happiness. | This is a 2012 outlook article. | |||

NEWS: Higgins will not play in the Western Bulldogs Round 19 match against West Coast. He continues to battle a knee injury. Word is out that he could be shutdown for the remainder of the season. But we still need confirmation on this. Do not draft Shaun Higgins next year. He is extremely injury prone. He is a player who will unlikely ever reach his potential. | ||||

NEWS: Higgins collected 27 possessions, 4 marks & 5 tackles for 95DT/81SC. You can only hope he is turning things around for the season after struggling with injury over the past month. The Western Bulldogs are very unlikely to play finals this season after their loss to St Kilda on the weekend. We don't think this is great news for a player like Higgins. A little niggle & he may be shut down again. However he has been copping a fair bit of criticism over the past week about his durability. Perhaps he will try & play proud for the remainder of the season. | ||||

NEWS: Loose in defence in the first half and chopped it up... then got Baker in Q3 and stopped as if shot... 27 disposals and 4 marks plus 5 tackles | Higgins added booted 0.1 and 3 frees against. | |||
