Just want to mention that this bloke is an absolute gun!

He took apart a bloke that has been playing great footy and a bloke that smashed Carlton to bits the week before.

A lot of ppl on BF didn't have him in our best 22 :confused: but this bloke is our best KPD by a country mile. :cool:

Looking forward to seeing the Brown & Reid combo at full flight again in the near future.

Go Pies!!! :thumbsu:

How there wasn't already a thread on this before now has me beat!!!
An amazing comeback by the big #16..... and hasn't lost a yard of pace!!!! :thumbsu::)
 
I always knew he is in our best 22.When presti stepped aside and nathan brown played in the 2010 grand final replay,it was one of the best moves we ever made.Nate brown is a gun.

Massive hole in our side last year, fact of the matter is if Reid makes it back next game to have those 2 back there will make our side look so good again its not funny. Its going to be very hard for any key forward to dominate against us if Brown doesnt get ya Reid will.

Looking forward to being at the Gabba seeing Brown v Brown
 
Agree with all these comments, he was brilliant on the weekend. I admit I didn't have him in my best 22 given he was only a replacement for Presti in 2010 gf, but I am very happy to eat my words now. I was also impressed with his fitness level considering his lack of match practice over the last 18 mths or so. Hes a weapon.
 
Not sure I'd put him over Reid just yet, but the Reid/Brown combo looks to be an awesome one given their respective strengths. Between them, they account for the vast majority of KPFs out there.

Add Keeffe on top and our young back kpp stocks look pretty good.
 
Rambo was extremely good first game back.

By the way, all this toast and no bacon and eggs??? WTF.

I think it's a bit disingenuous to say that we might have won the flag last year had he been in the side; we still would have had a selection dilemma with Reid, Taz and Browny all down back. Having said that he was superb on Wednesday and it's brilliant having him back. :thumbsu:
 
I have to admit i didn't know how good he was before the 2010 gf's. I also forgot how good he could be before the weekend. However at full strength i have brown, Reid and Taz in our backline. Very tough on Keefe but someone has to miss.

On a side note, will we Taz back at his best this year? I am not sure.
 
Brown, Reid, Dawes, Cloke are a kpp spine that would make any team envious.. Add keefe and taz to that as well and it's looking scary (and confusing as to how we'd play them all)

I don't like to think about what ifs, but brown was clear best 22 last season and his loss hurt more than we all realized

Great to have him back !

Saw him go to ground in the last qtr...
thankfully it was only cramp :p

^^^ IMO Buckley is giving keefe the tough roles NOW because when taz retires we have someone to cover his spot straight away ;) smart coach heyyy
 
So glad to have him back. He played very well against the Bombers considering how long he has been out for. When Reid comes back it'll do the world of good because those work really well together.
 
I love Browny.

Is the ultimate team play.

Knows his role and does whatever needs to be done in order to achieve the desired outcome.

He wore Crameri like a cheap suit big time on Wed.

He was brilliant.

We have missed him, what a gun.
 
I loved the interview Nathan gave after the game on AFL360, where he basically said when the final siren went, he hugged Maxy, and Maxy told him "Welcome back brother".

If that doesn't explain how much Nathan Brown has been missed nothing does.:thumbsu:
