Nathan Brown To Retire?

[WonnaJurah 5]

i know he isnt a dees player, but after suffering a dreadful injury vs us , it appears that nathan brown from tigers will announce retirement on the footy show on thursday

sad end to a good player if thats the case

[Jaded No More 68,835]

I really hope that that's not the case.

It would be a terrible shame for such a talented player to end his career so prematurely, all because of a freak injury.

If he does call it a day, I hope he announces it on a more credible and respected forum than the Footy Show.

[QueenC 74]

I truly hope not. I am a real fan of his.

Although I can understand it if his leg is just not right and may never be.....

But it would be a very unfortunate end to a career, and a massive loss of talent to the game .

[WonnaJurah 5]

its only sketchy but roo and hamil also could be as well ,on the same night

[QueenC 74]

You'd think Hamill would be a pretty good bet?

Because accorrding to our friends over at Punt Road End, at 3pm today Wallace said that Brown was pain-free after a running session on Monday, but because it's been six weeks since his last game, the club will need to manage his return to action carefully.

"I keep not wanting to put a time frame on these things, but we're hoping that over the next fortnight we can work him back up and hopefully we can see him back out there," Wallace said. Not really retirement talk?

And frankly I really hope not.

Mate, there's another thread on bigfooty saying that he's now finally running without pain

Seriously though, bigfooty is ok, 90% of it is trolling shiite but from time to time there are some really worthwhile threads.

I hope that's not the case, it'd be such a blow to the game if he were to hang to boots up. It was a terrible injury, it doesn't surprise me that it's been so hard for him to come back.

[w00dy 146]

think he is a complete tool, but that doesn't change the fact he's a great player, and would be a loss to the game...

[demonfanjezza 1]

It will be a great loss to see him go.

But with his good footy brain in showing up ND 2-3 wks ago on the footy show, it would not suprise me if he coached a team one day

[Gorgoroth 12,910]

hope for the games sake and his own that he is ok

[WonnaJurah 5]

he won temptation football challenge last night so is in form lol, but was against fev bucks and dixon

[TheJunkYardDog 0]

Bucks lost it after he bought that ring.

Well it was the first thing Richmond has won in a while, so points for that !!!

How did he show up ND?

[QueenC 74]

I don't think he showed him up, but he did give a few "coaching" suggestions and they were dismissed through humour.

The comments were not at all derogatory from either one, but from what I can remember they could have been useful.

It was nothing more than an outsiders perspective, which is not a bad thing sometimes. !!!

[Rivers Run Red 187]

I just watched the video of him breaking his leg again, it's still sickening. The shot of him sitting down with the leg almost at a right angle, its here on YouTube...

[demonfanjezza 1]

Ouch, that was no good especially with the leg at a right angle.

Thanks RRR for the clip

I hope you never change companies or work for someone else when they have offered more money and /or better conditions with a view to bettering your lot in life.

Seriously, so many people hold afl players up to standards that would never apply to themselves.

I hope he comes back as he is the reason you go to the footy.

Nathan Brown - Rich, is a money hungry, smart asre little pratt. Got what he deserved. Another one bites Whelans dust. Ask the guy at KFC in Qld what he thinks of brown.
