IIRC he was being groomed as a winger last preseason before his ACL. Would like him to go back into that role and try to put pressure on Stants to perform.

Can't wait to see him play games this year and cement a spot..at the expense of someone though.
I'd be happy for him just to show some good signs.
No way he will be best 22 by seasons end.

I mustn't have seen this.
Browne is a much better kick, Browne would have played more bar injury in the last 18 months and despite Dalgleish being quicker, Brownes pace is sufficient enough for a half back and he is arguably the most well developed of this bunch.

Browne is definitely behind every single one of them. Wouldn't be surprised to see him delisted at the end of the year.

That's what a year out of the game will do to you. No exposed form to gauge him off

And his exposed form before that wasn't exactly fantastic.

At AFL level, no
At VFL level, he was tracking quite nicely

Played a terrific game against Adelaide a few years ago in a narrow loss and just hasn't quite been able to get back out onto the field since due to injuries. I like him, I think he has some quality attributes and I hope that he can finally get an uninterrupted run at it this year.
I thought he was quality in the AFL. Had an amazing side step and was good with his disposal.
I know some people feel like his handful of games was the football equivalent of Rob Quiney's 9 up in Brisbane but I felt he belonged. Browne also looked great in the first quarter of the NAB cup game against WCE before doing his ACL.

browne has played better afl games than dalgleish.

Gee the opposition looked like a bunch of plodders from that vision.

Good to see the decision making has not wavered from that short clip. Would easily be my favourite (non - seniors) player on our list.

Yeah, rated this guy really highly. Has a big Campese like goose step on him and is elite by foot.

A lot of marks of short kicks in there.
I didn't realise he'd had 29 possessions. He certainly looked decent though; probably the best he's played this year.
