Player Watch Callum Brown (Delisted 2022)

[Shade]

He isn’t good enough. Actually he’s no good full stop.

The bloke can’t kick 40m.

hes seriously more worried about hes fuxking hair than playing football the amount of times he flicks it and plays with it is disturbing.

 

[bucksisbest]

He is just a little kid.

 

[Scritchyscroony]

Yeah I've been uncritical of Callum till now.. Thought I'd seen some good signs and he just needed more time in the game. Tonight he was terrible. Not as bad as Hoskin Elliot but to be fair it would be be hard to be as bad as WHE without trying real hard to be bad. Both need to play prolonged VFL until they start killing it there and demand another chance.
That said, I have zero confidence that our match committee will make this obvious selection change.

Our Match Committee don't have a Clue

 

[stormskye]

It’s pretty simple, change his surname and he wouldn’t be playing

 

[ZEV]

Seems to have gone backwards the past two years.

Lacks size, pace and strength.

Disposal by foot is poor, decision making hasn't been great.

Tries hard and seems to be a good kid.

I think it's time to move past him though.

This one hundred times.

 

[Kreme Pie]

He’s a goer, but that’s about it. Showed some positive signs in 2019. Thought he might’ve gone on with it. He hasn’t.
Had the chance to ice the game tonight. Muffed it.

 

[gouki88]

Nearly 23 years old and he’s regressed in consecutive years. Deserves a year in the VFL

Not the 1st Time he had a Chance to Seal a Game for him to Stuff it up

 

[danielnajdek]

It’s pretty sad when you prefer an American to have the shot at goal over Brown. Saddest part is Cox would’ve drilled the goal.

 

[THATSGOLD]

He’d be a good amateurs footballer like Brayden Shaw and Kyle Martin

Comeon, Kyle Martin averaged over a goal a game, no way C. Brown gets to that level.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

When youre one of the WORST SET SHOTS IN THE ENTIRE ******* AFL WHY THE fu** WOULD U TAKE A SET SHOT OFF COX THEN GO AND MISS ONCE AGAIN FROM 30 METRES OUT

Useless ******* spud.

Why would u even play him anywhere in the forward 50? If he gets the footy he will miss it 8/10 times and waste the opportunity

Yep, and he was leading for the ball 45m out earlier, to a player in possession maybe 70m out, which is just a wasted kick. He still has to find another target in range, so it’s just a redundant link in the chain and another opportunity to turn the ball over or get spoiled.

Callum Brown should essentially never lead for the ball inside 50. Crumbs and defensive pressure only.

 

[magpie_marty]

I get the angst and understand,
Could we go through other players set shots that missed,and roast them?

 

[Linda Lovelace]

If there has been a worse 50-game player in the history of the AFL, then none immediately comes to mind. Who would have thought that nepotism and cronyism could ever go wrong, eh?

But let's direct the hate not at the kid, but the blind morons who continue to select him. If someone wanted to pay me 300 grand a year to drag my fat, old arse around the park, it wouldn't exactly be my fault if I rocked up on game day would it?

The kid is getting to pretend to be an AFL footballer just like daddy, so it's not his fault, but it's long overdue for someone at the club to end this ridiculous fantasy.

 

[Robroy22]

How confident would any of you blame merchants have been if Pendles had of had to take the set shot instead of Cal Brown?

Possibly no one and Pendles is a very ave set shot at goal.

Worse 50 game player, interesting question.
The following played over 100!
Matt Shaw
Zac Dawson
John Worsfold
Strawbs O'Dwyer
How he compares to them, I'm not sure.

He has certainly become one hasn't he? Brown's kick went straight where he aimed it too...lol..he needs to straighten his runup

 

[pablo disco bar]

I'm done with this bloke now..

Woosha was a best and fairest winning dual premiership captain and part of one of the greatest halfback lines in history...

Hmmmm.

Pendles does one or two other things though, yea?

 

[stormskye]

Nobody cares he missed, its expected. We care that he’s getting games, he’s not up to it, clearly. His surname gets him games, it’s unfair on other players

 

[raymond35]

Indeed. He was also a fat sniper with no football ability who was carried by the strongest playing list ever assembled.
