Browne > Graham

At the least he should be given a crack after his recent form.  Any upgrade on Graham would be a quantum leap forward.

 He's learning Browne, his size helps a lot but he still has a way to go. One effort today, he dropped a simple mark under no pressure and looked like a giraffe with MS trying to pick it up for a sec, You guys would be all over him faster than taliban into a hillside cave.

Maybe CUB but I couldn't dislike him any more than Graham.  If you have nothing else as a player then at least have some heart.  Graham = Peaheart

BrownE repaid the coaching staff who brought him in this week. Also copped a nice shiner under his left eye  for his troubles.

The big fella's performance would have meant a lot of contented tiger heads as they passed out last night. If he improves on that we wont see graham back in, in the short term

I was content after the very first bounce  ;D

We had a ruckman watching the bloody ball !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And guess what - he did for the entire game

Can't have it! Can we?  ;D

Seriously, I thought he was great, for the amount of work he did, I thought he did a fantastic job. He is still very raw but I reckon he showed there's a fair bit to work with

And a well done to Jayden Post - he was a reasonable foil when he went into the middle when teh gave BrownE a rest

If Browne's performance last night doesn't highlight how much difference having a fair crack from your ruckman means to our team then I don't know what will.  Goodbye Graham, don't bother coming back.

Agreed, the big Dinosaur was great last night!!!!

agree wp

and the postman just needs a confidence builder, only if he kicked that goal , he will be a dominant player if he just gets that confidence

spot on WP. He was awesome. Did a great job all night. He proved me wrong last night. I hope he can go on to be a permanent. Already passed Graham IMO.

Browne’s big night out
richmondfc.com.au
By Tony Greenberg
Wed 25 May, 2011

The 203cm, 105kg, ‘Man Mountain’ from Mansfield,  was a valuable contributor, winning a game-high 24 hit-outs, to go with his 15 disposals, six marks, four tackles, and plenty of ‘one-percenters’.

“He was fantastic,” Trent Cotchin told the 3AW football panel.
“He promised the midfield group before the start of the game that he was just going to create a contest.
“That’s what his role was within the side - and that’s what he did.
“He was up against three really good ruckmen in Ryder, Hille and Bellchambers, so to be one v three for the majority of the game, and give the effort that he did, throwing himself at some contests, is just fantastic.  And, that’s all we can ask of him . . .”

He promised blowies to the leadership group and the coaches. Could be the only possible reason he has ever been picked to play seniors.
