" I would root Nathan Brown"......Just picturing changing ends at half time....Brown taking a run up from the back fence....
I love Nathan Brown
- Thread starter Cameron
- Start date
I'm not sure I would go that far, @Cameron but he is certainly making a big difference in our intensity in both defense and attack when he comes onto the field. The others must follow that lead more often, and we will win more matches. Lodge particularly needs to play like Brownie, when they come onto the field together.
Maybe you need to start being more gentle with him
Drama and life go hand in hand like a dramatic Tango dance and we all move to its melodramatic melody
No one escapes Drama . Not even Nathan Brown .
But we can all strive to Rise above it and Prevail like Great Sea eagles do

His lining up against the Storm so I expect him to be out for the following game against the Panthers. 😔
And the two after that including the bye 😉

Yeah, if OP still wants to root him, better get him now on his "on" week. On second thoughts, maybe an "off" week would be better…
Gigantic step up from Matt Plod

Agreed..some errors tonight but still worth having him.
He was good tonight with his aggression
But geez he got close to line there nearly lost it , a few years ago it would have got ugly. But just quietly would have liked to see him unleash a few there 😉

Make Manly Great Again #Hasler2019
He was lucky not to cost us twice!
Real dumb play again.
Real dumb play again.

I admire his effort but there’s also a degree of embarrassment to be an enforcer that regularly gets on their arse.

Ben Kennedy's was an old and arguably washed up player who found his second coming as our forward leader in an inexperienced Manly pack. And what a fine leader of men.
Jake might captain the blues.
But our Manly pack has lacked a spine.
And there is only one forward leader of men at Manly. And Nathan Brown you are our MAN.
On the weekend he couldn't give two ****s who wasn't on the field for Man. 13 up against 17. You can just imagine the Manly boys all stunned at half time, no subs, and a Brownie utering something like, what only 4 more of them. Tell em there ****ed and they're the ones who are gonna need more men.
It was give me the ball, and this is how it's done stuff.
But the rizz of the bloke as well. The show man. The Theatre. From running from the back fence. To making it clear to one and all at the ground, he's not taking any crap and if there is a problem just take it up with him.
He's not just a tackling machine, politely and quietly going about his his role.
He's our leader. The one that inspires. Inspires the crowd and has them chanting. Inspires those around him.
Even the ref seemed to understand. "There wasn't much in it Nathan". Seemed like code for no need to take his head off just yet.
No way do Manly win that game last year.
