I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'he' is the definition.

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for hal that I've seen before include "Henry (diminutive)" , "Man" , "Henry (abbrev.)" , "Prince -, Falstaff's companion (Henry IV, Pt I)" , "Bluff Prince" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
