Campbell Brown

[bmaurizio]

It takes more than a three on one to beat Browny.

Let's see Browny try it again in say three years time.That would be nice to see.
Ciao

here is a tissue for your issue

Nobody in carlton has half the testicles that brown possesses, and before you say anything, NO 4 on 1 does not constitute as tough.

And here's an infraction for your effort!

 

[FancyNancy]

It's "You're" not "your" any idiot knows that .

N.B. There is no space between the last word in a sentence and the full stop.

Considering your all calling for Brown's head but are avoiding Jarrad Waite's elbow in the ribs on one of the Hawk players suggests to me your of double standards.

Brown was at the very least, going for the ball, while Kreuzer got in the way.

Waite just recklessly elbowed that bloke for no reason. Whatever Campbell Brown gets, Jarrad Waite should get double.

That has to be one of the most stupidist comments I have ever read on BF. Kreuzer got in the way huh? You sir, are a tool.

Nor does sinking an elbow into a bloke's back when he has his arms in the air.

I didnt see either the Waite or Brown incident, but from reading all the accounts it sounds like it was a late hit. Not the first time its happened, if he gets a couple of rounds off so be it, wont change my opinion of him.

I like watching Brown play (hated his father, complete thug). But Brown is a very physical and hard at it player an enforcer so to speak. We had our own at Carlton, Rhys Jones, Earl Spalding etc. I will still look forward to watching him play this year (he earnt AA for a reason) and if it was a dog act he will get punished and that will be it.

Remember boys this is football!!, its supposed to be physical and tough, some take it too far but Id rather that than pseudo netball type of game.

Another positive Kreuzer took a hit from a tough as nails player he got up got on with it and will be better off for it.

Is this about Brown or Waite?

This is weird, Browns hit as turned from bracing himself for the collission late into the contest, making kruzer earn it, now you have turned it into some notion that Brown was about 10 meters, behind, realised that kruizer has taken the mark, and browns come up and cracked him with the elbow square in the back

Get your facts right if your going to bad-mouth yourself, yes he was late, didnt go for the spoil, but he braced himself after realised he had no chance to spoil, he BRACED himself, didnt throw in the elbow because he was beaten, FFS

 

[RoK]

Browny mightve bumped your precious number one pick, but he shows more in the positive things he does in a game then your whole team combined could achieve in a season.

The day of the cheap sniper is gone.The late hit was not courage it was gutless.Brown thinks hurting a kid is tough it's not and he is nothing more than a thug.

Kid ya self on your own board mate ,He is a dog a bully and does not do the hard thing only the cheap thing.

Geez you guys are a bit precious.

It was a late bump, get over it.

Is easily one of the most courageous, if not the most courageous player in the competition in terms of putting his body on the line and putting himself into dangerous spots to help out his team mates.

Calls of him being "disgusting, gutless, weak" etc are hilarious. Football is a man's game, he did something outside of the rules and made a wrong decision and paid the consequences, get on with it.

Especially when the Blues would absolutely kill of a defender the calibre of C. Brown.

And supporters of every team say the same things whenever an incident occurs involving one of their players. I think a Hawk fan started a thread about Waite on the main board. Not sure why you feel the need to have your say here when some of your supporters do exactly the same thing on your board.

Simply put, whacking someone in the back who is completely unaware does not make a badass, it makes a dumbass.

How many Hawks will be missing the first couple of rounds due to suspension so far??

I still don't get the point of Brown's action, the game was won in the first quarter, all the Hawks had to do was not get injured or reported, yet they couldn't manage that.

The only people to suffer from Campbell's actions are his team mates who will probably have to manage without him for a few weeks. Silly boy.

Explains having a look, doesn't really explain the hypocrisy when Hawks supporters do exactly the same thing on their own board. It is the nature of team boards and it is the nature of people to bag out supporters for being precious over an issue that their own supporters would probably also complain about.

In other words, let it play out, the thread dies and life goes on. Not a lot of point in poking the natives with a stick.

 

[Miss_Hawk_Fan]

Very True TODN and when the hawks get precious in there own board, other clubs supporters come and tell us about it. It's merely a cycle in cyber chat in footy, in ben cousins words "such is life"?

Yup and the Hawks fans should tell them where to get off when they do as well. Just defending the territory.

I agree, very stupid, thankfully Brown's a footballer because he wouldn't be making the salary he is now anywhere else.

I disagree with theolddarnavy's though.

You can't condone a behaviour just because some other supporters do it. To say C. Brown is a thug, and weak when he is one of the most courageous player in the comp is of course going to create a response, and so it should, just as you guys would respond if it was said about one of your players (which apparently it has, but I haven't read it yet). Especially when the incident wasn't really that controversial at all. At least it got a 50 metres and a goal, where as Waite didn't even a free reversed (which was crazy)

Its pretty obtuse to allow something as valid because others are doing it. All to call a supporter hypocritical because of something another supporter said.

Missing the point. Threads like these are inevitable. Every team board has them and they all die off quickly.

Coming on to the CARLTON board to tell CARLTON supporters they are precious for starting the type of thread that occurs every time any player from any team makes a hit on one of their players, serves no purpose at all and really just fans the flames.

I understand you want to support your player and understand your point but really, it is like complaining about the trolling on Bay 13 with the extra kicker being you are going to get even less of a hearing on here than you would there.

They aren't being precious, they just see the incident through navy blue eyes as you see it through gold and brown eyes. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

 

[Walshy_The_Goat]

Josh Kennedy's bump was nothing more than an accident and was simply unavoidable given the circumstances.

The Campbell Brown incident, on the other hand, was pure recklessness and could have caused a serious injury including not just a few broken ribs, but also kidney damage ala. Tom Lonergan. Whilst i'm unsure as to whether the true intent was to hurt Kreuzer, the fact his actions were reckless and preventable will certainly work against him. While i like Brown as a footballer, using a knee or elbow to exert your physical presence isn't considered 'courageous'. Based on that alone, 1 week would suffice.

 

[bigbol069]

This is brilliant. 8 pages of whining Carlton supporters going on about Browny bumping a bloke in a way that 10 years ago was par for the course and no more than a free kick. Then bragging about 4 blokes going at him when CB stood there and didn't even try and fight back.
Whatever makes you happy or was it the "fight back" in the second half when we rested our best players and played all the kids many of which haven't even played a senior game, not to mention the other 8 of our best 22 that didn't even play last night? Who were you guys missing again? Judd, Fisher and perhaps Spuddington from your best side, only 3? You still couldn't even come close! Going to be a long season for you guys by the looks.
Now I can understand the 8 pages of kleenex material. Need to get satisfaction somewhere hey?

If you allow posts like the bigbolo moron then it wll only encourage Carlton supporters to retaliate...posters like that should be nipped in the bud ..they are like a cancer on a team board .

 

[stoner]

Wasn't it Brown's fingers that so bravely made their way into Judd's eyes last year?

I think you might have your wires crossed just a tad mate. The "eye gouger" now plays for YOU!

The only thing Brown did wrong in that one was try to cover for him. Will Kreuzer be big enough to do the same? After all, all he got was a good solid bump.

 

[Big Ronnie]

Kid ya self on your own board mate ,He is a dog a bully and does not do the hard thing only the cheap thing.

He's an All Australian from last year. Theres a bit more to him dont you think?

Maybe it's my emotion talking; and maybe it isn't even bad enough to talk about. But when Fev and co. ripped into him I felt awesome.

You might review this as embarassing one day.

It was a pretty big hit and i thought it was great of Kruezer to get straight up again.
Mediumsizered im not to sure about 3-4 weeks but he should certainly get 2 weeks. He will only go for late contact and no eyes for the footy.

So what we are to take out contact from the sport? He wasnt in his back, he wasnt over his head he went in to his side late. Free kick up you get and move on.

If Browny gets rubbed it will be because the tribunal is pissed with him for lying last year and it's payback time.

Don't worry mate I'm pretty sure you're safe in 2008 from Hawks wanting to troll your board
