It doesn't sound good for Browny  :(. We've gone from 21 days to 6 weeks to now indefinite with no sign his leg is getting better.

This was always gonna be a challenge.

Part of playing on was accepting the fact that there will be pain - always.

IMO,He doesn't have the heart to want to. :banghead

Plough said today one day they get a good report on Browny and then the next a bad one. It's been going on and off like that for weeks.

MT, you attended pre-season training right?

How did Brown possibly get through all the sessions and get to peak fitness and play a few practice matches with his leg in such a state?

This doesn't make sense.  It's not like it was an injury he suddenly sustained.  The leg has been stuffed for almost 2 years and the poor bloke can't even walk now, yet he got through the preseason training with flying colors.

Something just doesn't add up.
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

Yep he trained the whole way through IIRC and did most of the sessions. He said he felt the pain due to the hot spot for the first time after the Mildura game and we haven't seen him since.

I can't explain it either but perhaps they should be resting him from any leg activity for a while even if he loses a little bit of conditioning in the legs as a result so the leg can heal properly instead of testing him each week and putting stress on it which just makes it flair up again  ???.

From the Herald-Sun:

Quote
Wallace said the club was unable to put a time frame on injured forward Nathan Brown's return.

Brown, who is yet to play a senior game this year, has been sidelined with a stress fracture relating to the leg he broke in 2005.

Wallace said Brown was frustrated that doctors could not determine why the injury was not improving. "We must have been to four or five different specialists to cover off anything that you could possible cover off," Wallace said.

"We don't know where it sits and no one can give us an absolute definitive answer on it."

Wallace said an initial diagnosis had the soreness in Brown's leg subsiding after four weeks, but the pain remained six weeks later.

"As he keeps having setbacks, you keep having to stop his progress and start all over again. Well, that makes it difficult," Wallace said.

"We've got to have our plans without Nathan involved . . . and then he becomes a bonus if and when he becomes available."
