Delisted #24: Alex Browne - Now at Northern Blues - Retired from footy - 2/5

[Bunk Moreland]

Ahh yes, the time is almost upon us.

Soon we will have de-listed every player on the list but who was not served with an infraction notice without ever having given any of them a decent shot at a career. By the end of next year we will have cleaned out almost all of the 2012 crop depsite there being a mantra somewhere that we are about development of our own.

If I can get a couple of email addresses I'll be feeding the ideas to whichever Essendon bashing a-hole in the media will listen.

Wot

Dempsey should have been delisted before browne and then taken as a rookie given he's ineligible to play the first few weeks anyway.

This post needs an infraction notice

troof hurts

Just picture Browne on the ground, arms and legs everywhere, hair sweaty and messy, bit flustered in pressure, missing kicks.

Now picture Woosha as coach... They just don't match do they. He dosent feel like a woosh player.

You don't transfer an older player to the rookie list.

Good luck with that

Very disappointing. Thankyou to those who have supported me through everything in the 5 years. Get behind the players, they deserve success.

I guess that's pretty official.

Poor guy. This is why I find it hard to hate on players for changing clubs when they feel like it. They might only get one shot at an AFL career so they should be given the chance to make the most of it.

I hope he gets another shot somewhere else.

I'm OK with him being delisted, but this means others have to go now too. 3 or 4 blokes I would have delisted before him personally.

A garbage decision informed by the garbage decision to never give the 2010/11/12 cohort a fair crack of the whip in the first place. It's one thing Hird actually did that he cops zero flack for.

Browne could easily go to Carlton or Brisbane and play 22 games of good footy next year.

I dunno he seems to cop a heap of it on here for not playing these guys.

But we are just humble internet nerds. Hasn't been mentioned in the media at all really, he's basically left us with a bit of a freo like age void in the list.

Think there will be one more.

I am picking Hams.

Steinberg will also be gone as we can't re-rookie him.

kav. surely stein is gone also

 

[Howard Moon]

Efc article says 2 list changes today, who is the other?

Kav.

Thought they'd give him another year after his knee.

Why wouldn't they announce them at the same time as these two if there was?

 

[Rack Watts]

Kav and Stein I understand.
Browne has some potential.
I guess he's sidesteppin' out of the club?

 

[daz17]

Sad to lose a sponsored player. Was a big fan on Browne. Will never forget seeing him a few years ago in Adelaide having a massive last quarter. All the best.

What a classy, classy dude.

Might seem harsh but it's the right call. Getting on the park a couple of times in 5 years is not good enough, injured or not. Good luck Alex!
