Past #16: Leigh Brown - 68 games for FFC - sent to NM 02 - 113 NM games - delisted end '08 - 63 CFC games

I'm glad someone agrees with me. He kicked six in a game once.

On Cooney?

 

[Virgil]

Righto.

Oops.

LOL

Seriously though, if people don't see Brown in the 22 next season, does this leave us with an unhealthy reliance on such a young KPP in Hansen? Or am I missing something? Move Petrie back to CHB perhaps?

Hopefully no one signs Brown and he ends up back at heyfield

[wooostace]

Oh, how time did tell..



(needed a solid dig to boost my confidence).

 

[The Other Dean]

Never in my entire posting history have I ever had cause to use this expression, but this occasion calls for it.....

ROFL

Some great calls here.

How time did tell indeed.

Brown is hopeless. He has no pace and gets slaughtered on the lead. He can only play as a loose defender.

**** Judd, get this bloke on our recruiting committee.

 

[Z_K]

I stand by it. Leigh Brown is a gun.

 

[The Other Dean]

But seriously, Brown is a little slow but is a good mark and booming kick.

Can kick.

fair to say this guy knew what we were getting.

 

[Star]

On Cooney?

Bugger - you beat me to it

but first we have to shop him round and make sure no one wants him, should be easy

 

[Bozz.Clunker.H]

i gurantee if we let it known that we want to trade, carlton, essendon and wb will all come sniffing, u will be surprised about what we will get for him

 

[Jimmy's Hot Dogs]

Can kick.

Both sides. Can't tell which is his natural foot......

Welcome to Leigh "The Anvil" Brown, despite the current sadness of losing Byron Pickett, l for one am stoked at getting the Anvil across to us, he can be moulded into something special, can play at either ends of the ground. Sometimes you have to give a bit to get a bit. Some might argue we gave too much, but with the added draft pick, its not a thought process l subscribe to.

Imagine this kid under the guidance of our own strong man, Glenn Archer. The change of environment might be good for Pickett too, he looked a bit stale towards the end of the season and at times a little disinterested.

For me this is a win win deal, obviously only time will tell us if l am correct. The extra draft choice is the unknown factor, imagine if we manage to draft well and that selection proves to be something special.

Good work Rooboys, and good luck Choppy at your new club.

Wrath

Sorry Wrath.

 

[ultimate_roo]

shouldnt be traded

 

[pharro]

fair to say this guy knew what we were getting.

Bulltwang - he said Leigh Brown can only play as a loose defender. I do not accept that as true.

 

[RoyalBlue]

Must be retained.

loose defender/forward or whatever. His only glaring ommission was the word 'floating'.

 

[Devil Fish]

Good post.

I am shattered to lose Byron, but rapt that my biggest worry (key backmen possies) has been alleviated.

Which draft pick did we get as a bonus?

Glad that your biggest worry was alleviated. As I've always said, "NorthBhoy - can post."

 

[Bowski]

Both sides. Can't tell which is his natural foot......

...because there equally shit.boom boom.
you keep setting em up i'll keep knocking them down.

Pleased to help.

Leigh will come good have faith, Liked his first half of the season when he was left in one position for longer than 30 seconds. JUST PUT HIM SOMEWHERE FFS AND LEAVE HIM THERE!
