Ben Brown Staging

[tony__montana]

There was another one he got where he and Talia were wrestling Thalia’s arm around his waist and he threw himself fwd - ridiculous. I notice a lot of the Collingwood players play for frees too, constantly throwing hands up in the air exaggerating the slightest contact. It’s a disgusting blight on the game.

 

[SuperSteele22]

Yeah it's taken a while for him to be called out for it but Brown waving his arms about at every contest exaggerating contact isn't exactly a new thing. Floggard went pretty hard here but he's spot on the money.

 

[CrowInFiji]

please take Selwood out of that statement.

He is as courageous as they come and a great leader....your club could do with a tough captain like him leading by example instead of clown trying to be tough by using a power stance.

There is no denying hIs courage, it's just a shame he feels the need to try and game the system so consistently. Courageous and cheating are not mutually exclusive so I'm not sure of your point.

You also make yourself look like a moron if you are still in 2019 quoting something that happened in 2017. And you are acting as if Tex came up with it. Your captain might just outbogan Tex so shove it.

They aren't as bad as Richmond. Just watch Jack Riewoldt. He literally stops going for the ball so he can complain that he didn't get a free. Everytime.

More players should do this. It would be far more effective than fines from the AFL if players called each other out of s**t acts.

BS, jack whinges bc he never gets a free. If he got the frees this floper did, he’d kick 100

StageShow Brown?

Good on BJ for calling this out

Yep, and rightly never gets anything in return from the umps. If Reiwoldt and Hawkins got half of the favours that Brown gets they’d be consistently recording 100 goal seasons. Brown’s been flopping for 2-3 years now.

Now you are arguing my point with me. He whinges.

2nd sentence is a straight out, embittered lie.

Yes correct. So?

lol Richmond supporters calling out diving.

 

[Seagrave_Holmes]

He is a very good player, not sure why he sees the need to do it.

Jesse Hogan is the GOAT at doing this

That’s your takeaway? Lol

Any chance you could address the topic at hand? If I recall correctly there are multiple threads on Rance's diving. This one's about Brown.

Stop posting.

Nah u

4 goals, 3 from soft free kicks about 10m out.

For 3 weeks we listen to North supporters complain that he is getting manhandled, AFL respond and go too far the other way it seems.

All he does is lead out at the ball, jump and throw his arms out like he's been pushed or held, he is slowly losing my respect.

He won't get fined though, the AFL say adding mayo is fine.

That said, even with the Mayo I don't understand how it's a free kick.

He was doing that last year as well, shocked there wasn't heat on him sooner. I've been calling him Ben "Floppy" Brown since we played them last year, leads hard jumps and throws his arms out and head down it's his go to move, glad other people can see it and I'm not just crazy.

 

[radiojake]

I think it seems that I missed a very good game of footy to miss (in that it was good that I missed it)

If I'd been watching that live I'd have lost my s**t

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Have said many of times.Until the AFL make the umps full time these type of decisions will continue.

 

[Crashy]

He sold that more than Shawn Michaels against hulk hogan at summer slam 05

 

[Andrew Mc]

I guess with Rance out for the season someone has to step up.
