Jack Higgins has had an unwanted reputation attached to him for years of being the last bloke you want kicking for your life, a string of crucial missed set shots being more than enough evidence. Quietly, in a year for St Kilda they would rather forget, Higgins has figured out whatever deficiencies were in his kicking technique to become a far more reliable conveyance on the set shot than most footy fans would remember. He is not the first spray merchant to figure out his biomechanics late in his career, and he deserves more respect than he gets.
