there was actually something on this in the paper about a month ago, saying he has no feeling in some of his toes, but i cant see how that will stop him playing AFL.

....i broke both bones in my lower legs just like Brown about 15 years ago now and i still have numbness around the area about the size of a saucer. If it gets knocked/kicked its incredible pain. So YES he could have nerve damage, but you would think that with him being an elite athlete, they would have fixed any nerve damage or will do so if thats the case..

As a medical student about to be examined on this stuff. I can assure you that all myotomes and dermatones communicate to the spinal cord through the legs (not rocket science). It follows that they all must pass near the fibula and/or tibia. Brown's broken leg and related soft tissue damage therefore, could easily result in a whole array of losses of sensory modalities.
Common sense really.

If he was still at the dogs they would still be making the stretcher out of bamboo

brown's calf muscle was severed from the bone, so I imagine nerves would likely be severed in this process.
I hope Browny makes it back, even if he's half the player he was, he'd still be damn good

Loss of feeling in a small area isnt so bad but if he has loss of muscle power (foot drop) that will be a big problem esp with running and kicking

Broke my leg 6 years ago and I am still numb on the inside of my ankle where they inserted a screw. That area is also very 'veiny' but it has zero affect on my ability to kick *Collingwood supporters.. Actually it's even better because I can kick em as hard as I wish and I still dont feel a thing

Clearly you missed the point...
My guess is, if he'd stayed at the Bulldogs he most likely, potentially, almost certainly really, would not have broken his anything playing for Richmond.
