Prediction How Good Will Jack Higgins Be?

[popsikle99]

Bucks said Colonwood didn't recruit him because he had ADD.

For realz? In public?

Yep. Said he had concentration issues.

Bucks said Colonwood didn't recruit him because he had ADD.

If true, that's discriminatory and a non issue with the right mentoring and medication. Anyway, our gain their loss he looks like a great kid.

 

[Cdog71]

Reckon Heath Shaw might know a thing or two about that stuff
Just sayin

Don’t ADD sufferers take medication for it? IIRC Shaw has talked about this before publicly

 

[captain cotch 9]

TBF Stephenson will most likely be a superstar

 

[Not Important]

don't let's place too much pressure on him.

 

[Rance2Mewtwo]

Yep. Said he had concentration issues.

With the monotone of Buckley’s voice, this is already a serious issue for half the Collingwood team.

Yeah, I think that's right.
Hope Turbo doesn't get self conscious bout all this if it's the truth...he's a ripper

If figjam could, he’d clone himself enough mini-mes to fill the entire Collingwood list

 

[NaturalDisaster]

If he does have AD/HD and Collingwood refused to recruit him because of it then it's good for him that they didn't.

 

[Cdog71]

What a great shower of w***ers that would be

 

[Cdog71]

Not really thread related but I really dig the way the TIGES are doin this come as you are stuff

Shouldn't need it. It's almost a good thing in later life, they tend to get shit done.

 

[THE_GUN]

Lets hope the coaches and players have been in his ear about what Buckley said and rev the kid up a little to just give that extra bit

 

[biaseddustyfan]

how ****ing overhyped is jiggins at the moment

media is jerking the **** out of his wang

hopefuilly he isn't listening to any of it

I think it was more a case the Collingwood recruitment department had set up a 'special' website for Buckley to select the 2017 draftees he wanted by simply clicking on an ADD button next to a potential draftee, and then he cracked the shits and said what do I want with all these kids with ADD..............

 

[mad_doggy911]

Buckley said it in an interview without using the medical term. It was a concentration thing he was alluding to which is the same shit. Hope he kicks half a dozen snags against this arseh*le now.

Dermie on fox footy last night said , that he coached against turbo as he was coming through the tac cup system and even earlier, dermie said "as a 15 year old higgo had a 25 yr olds brain on a 15 year olds body, and the kid is seriously smart out on the ground "

Dermie loves to bignote himself.(grain of salt)

As a footballer talking about football, he has a fair bit to big note about - it doesn't bother me as much as others it seems. Think Higgo has enough of that stuff about him too just quietly - we'll see........

Its just the way he comes across.He's very condescending to the audience when he doesn't have to be.

Like most of us, he's mellowing too. I'd imagine it's hard to filter an element of that when you are being paid to have an opinion and it's how you earn your living and you were one of the game's greats. I'm glad Dermie chose to share that about Higgo, even if it came across as condescending to some.

 

[TJTIGER]

Wonder if he (Higgo) drinks Red Gatorade?....

Insert road Runner gif....meep, meep!!
