IF Dogwick played him he might give him the gig on Kyle Landford this week. And hang him out.

I'd be ok with that.
 
Needs good players around him. The lack of intensity stands out. Has a lot of physical gifts - quick, can jump etc but has a real J Short softness about him.

Gonna frustrate the *smile* out of me watching him cruise around.
 
Got a whole 10 games under the belt playing for a side that's struggling through injuries n transition. Not gunna even think about how good he is, or isn't until about the end of next year. So far the kid looks fairly well skilled and a bit composed, balanced n laconic which for me are all positive traits to have within the game. Then all he needs is some growing n maturing time kinda like a fine wine or whisky.
Blokes like Bowdo, Rhys the hyphen, Dale Lewis were players that always seemed to be going half paced n rarely fully committed yet were somehow always around the right place just when they needed to be there. Just gunna sit back n watch with interest.

Some very generous assessments of Brown’s game around here especially considering the flak Sonsie is (rightfully) coping for a near identical performance.

Being just an elite kick is not good enough.

All the special commentators have brought up Brown's name for praise tonight, i've been a fan from day one, i think you've picked the wrong player for your negativity.

Not only a great user but he wins it back. Had the most intercept possessions in the game, including his standard one he had no right to (but made look easy).

Joel Selwood speaking glowingly of him on the telecast. No doubt the scat’s are into him.

Has grown as a player. He is just super clean and doesn’t panic under pressure. Oh he can also kick a footy.

Doesn’t panic and makes it look easy are the same things that many have been criticising him for in recent weeks imo ..but they call it lacking urgency !!!

He doesn’t lack urgency at all, he is just a calm and unhurried footballer.

He going to be a very good player for us

We have some young players starting to emerge this year and he is by far one of leading young players on our list.

Some of his kicking and decision making is so mature for a player of only 11 games experience, I reckon his highlights reel is already a delight to watch.

The commentators all thing he is something special - worth the wait.
