What are you all expecting Brown to do??? Just go up and punch him??? I'm sure if he got half a chance he would have made his presence felt. Anyone who has watched Brown play knows he never takes a backward step to anybody. He was concussed after being hit during the melee (whether deliberatly or not, he did get 4 stitches out of the melee), was angry as anything, probably not the best time to interview him. Him and Lloyd have history, with Lloyd getting him in the jaw during a 'shepherd', then Brown punching him a few times later in the game.
Brown is tough as they come and always puts his body on the line, let's not get silly here.

Please. He's as tough as Cameron Mooney.Brown is tough as they come and always puts his body on the line, let's not get silly here.
IMO this hit ranks up there with the Hall punch of last year (and could well have a similar effect on his career).
Lloyd knew it was his last game at half time, cant keep up with the pace of the game, nice way to go out..
One poster also suggested it was Lloyd that got Brown again yesterday, a high hit which apparently required six stitches (happened immediately after the Sewell hit). I haven't see that one though - I actually thought it was from another contest when Monfries came in late with the knees, but nothing has been said on that so I'm probably wrong.
t was lovett murray not Lloyd
Classic example of the pot calling the kettle black.

God bless him
I know it's your board and all, but sheez have a think about it.
Brown is and has been one of the most couragous footballers of the last decade, with many instances of his extreme courage/stupidity. He's also shown he plays on the 'edge' of the rules - and has to live with the additional media scrutiny his heritage, and team brings.
=======
Brown was put in a no-win situation. Hawthorn players are 'fair-game', and he knows the media (and subsequently the MRP) will jump on any minor infraction - especially from a 'bad-boy' poster-player as Brown.

Thanks for the new avatar.[...]

Dustbin - you've shown three videos that are 'borderline' fair. The fact that those are reportable says more about the media portrayal of Brown than the man himself.

I have no hesitation in calling Lloyd a sniper - but that is heavily coloured by the multitude of incidents involving him and Hawthorn players over the few games he's played. (He's tended to miss a fair few with one week 'injuries')
Lloyd broke Thurgood's jaw with a reinforced forearm brace. That alone is worse than any of the incidents above. He wasn't any closer to the contest than Brown in the ones above, yet managed to 'push' his arm through Thurgood's jaw.
Lloyd broke Brown's nose with a punch off the ball. Brown ran after Lloyd (who was heading to the bench) and was penalised with his retaliation.
Lloyd broke Sewell's cheekbone and eye-socket with a terrible bump on a player with his head down. A fraction of a second earlier, and he may have put him into a wheelchair. IMO this hit ranks up there with the Hall punch of last year (and could well have a similar effect on his career).
Lloyd punched Sammy in the nuts, hard enough Sam sat out most of the rest of the game.

How long did Brown cop for that hit?
He accepted 2 weeks for the hit on Kreuzer, the MRP gave him 2 weeks for the hit on Wells but was over turned by the tribunal.
