We have our problems with Jurrah and Grimes, so do the Lions with Brown.

He injured his eye socket in a collision at training and it seems he will need further surgery.

You have to feel for the guy.

Wow. That will be his 3rd head reconstruction in as many years i think!!

The Bolts wiill be showing soon.

Time to breed more Greyhounds me thinks John..Retire.

Good Bloke btw.

Yeah - great bloke. He came down to our footy club last year and had a chat to the boys the Thursday night before our grand final. Went through his feelings on the lead-up to all his big games, what to do, how to prepare and all that. Was a great experience. Would have had him in a Dees strip any day, and is definitely a sad story. Best of luck to the big fella!

According to the press he's been taken to hospital for precautionary scans: “It’s far too early to speculate (about the injury) … we just sent him off for precautionary scans because of his history,” ..."Warren said there was no indication Brown had suffered another serious injury this morning. “He was fine, absolutely fine, no sign of concussion or anything like that,” .

I saw the footage of brown getting a knee to the head again. I heard vossy say they have to practice this way to play this way and he is a legend of footy and now a coach so i'll take his word for it but holy crap I would be so [censored] and ask why they train this way if let's say Megner did the same thing to Mitch Clark or Watts.

Brown will be back at training on Monday after a successful visit to his local steel fabrication shop for on-going weld repairs.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89
