I think of him as the anti-Turner. Can get it and give it a decent roost, not so keen on chasing and tackling. That he got dropped from the Suns during the season and was traded away for a bag of twisties doesn’t fill me with a lot of confidence.

Haha I love that the "Higgo benchmark" is slowly on its way to becoming folk lore at NMFC for the standard that any incoming player is held against. I hope it persists long after he's retiired as well.When he was playing good footy he was averaging nearly 4 tackles a game, that’s as good as just about anyone on our side. He is the sort of player who plays well with good players around him, his best footy was when he was playing along side Ablett. He is Probably not the sort of player who you’d build a midfield around which his why the suns gave him away for peanuts.
Hall is theicing rather than the cake. Luckily though we already have the Cake with the likes of Cunners, Higgins, Dumont & Anderson.
He won’t be getting tagged here with the likes of Polec and Higgins on the outside.
Im backing him in to not only find his previous form but to beat it again in north colours. This is a huge call but U believe is potential ceiling and impact is just as high as Higgins when he came to the club.

I honestly don't think there will be too many players that have played post-2010ish that will be remembered as fondly as Higgo (obviously Boomer, Drewie, Spud etc), not only for just how ******* good he's been, but also the way that he seems to have embraced the club himself. Genuine Shinboner.

When we were looking at picking him up I was dead against it, he’d had 3 years of poor form on the back of 2 serious injuries. McCartney had destroyed his confidence so badly that he was hiding him in the back pocket! I knew his best was solid but it had been a long time and a lot of injuries since he had show that sort of output.
He would have to be one of the best pick ups in the club history. Up there with Shannon Grant as a recruit, and yet cost us absolutely nothing.
His output since joining north been nothing short of amazing!

Aaron "Kouta" Hall.Will wear the #43.
Looking forward to being able to again shout AAZZZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Nope. John Platten.Would that be the highest number worn by a Brownlow medalist
That was the perfect mark. To this day it is criminally underrated.
I had the privilege of seeing both of Azza's really big speccies (Launceston & the final)
One rule I actually agree with.Not eligible for MOTY because it had to be decided by the end of the home and away season. Amateur Football League.
Will wear the #43.
