He was very good making the VFL Victorian side and hell even I was a fan back then and wanted him in the 22.

The few times he has played vfl in the last 5 years he has.

He was promoted back into the seniors after his last VFL stint off a 17 possession game playing as a mid...

Edit: stand corrected hmm fairly sure I remember reading a report where he barely touched it and got back in.

Daicos with a lovely contested mark inside 50, but can't convert...

Another intercepted kick-out, Gray loads up to the top of the square, COX in the middle of the pack, stands out like a T-Rex and clunks it overhead!

And from 25m, DIF... GOAL!

51-8

Goal to the Roosters, for something off the ball, I think. Didn't see who...

Any chance you can aim your bat cave correctly to counteract the wind out there Fatman?

Ball up 35 from home.

Lynch wins it down... quick kick out of the pack, bounces towards goal, GOES THROUGH!

Was that Brown? I think it was!

57-14

Brown looks to be playing well. Good signs.

His last appearance at this level vs Willy in 2015, he picked up 30.

So, if he's struggling to get a kick against the favourite for the spoon, you've gotta ask yourself 'just how far from the perch has he fallen'...?

Perhaps he is carrying an injury?

Keeffe with a free after a silly Chook ran too war without bouncing.

Lachy goes short, finds Billy not 15 even though it clearly was, Billy keeps his cool, gets around his man ordinary low-flying kick, finds Wills with the slips catch mark!

Rupe wants to pass it off, goes over to Oxley in the pocket, not 15 again, Ox steadies and KICKS THE GOAL!

63-20

He will be if he's fallen from the perch from any real height..
