Injury Nathan Brown

[the_champ_2004]

Just thought I'd let you know that currently Nath is not talking to the football club and is ropeable that it even happened.

It was their day off but they were told they were going on a short walk that ended up being a two hour hike. To make the descent shorter they climbed down steep cliff faces similar to the descent of Uluru. In protecting his reconstructed knee Nath was causing greater stress on his good knee and it eventually gave way resulting in a split knee cap.

What has made him even more angry is when the club said it could've happened in Gosches paddock. I hope he doesn't leave the club because of this as it does look quite amateurish.

He was two weeks off playing.

He did a interview with CTV not long ago about his knee

If true, the Arizona trip could prove a very costly exercise. I have not noticed any significant improvement in Dane Swan since Arizona and Jolly was probably due to come back anyway. Macaffer is still in the VFL. A king size wank mid season.

If the new bigfooty system is that posters have to log in everytime they make a comment, then I will soon be moving elsewhere. Getting heartily sick of it.

Well this is what I was told by his mate who has never steered me wrong before so I'm going to take it as fact. He's also not the one to make stuff up.

This is not the new BF system, it's just something with your browser acting up. Start a thread on the feedback board if the "contact us" option Quicky suggested hasn't worked.

The trainer mentioned that they would not see the benefits until finals commence

I call bullshit.

You say he's kneecap "just gave way", which even Nate himself said didn't happen.

He smashed it on a rock, THAT'S THE TRUTH.

Strange that he's not talking to the club seeing as he was spotted at the Westpac Centre by a friend of mine (who actually works there as a non Collingwood employee) just days ago.

End thread.

 

[PieBeast]

Everyone who have heard Nate speak about the Club will know this is bullshit.
Tell your mate to stick this "mail" up his clacker.

What is the 'contact us' option? I think the constant logging in started with the download of IE9.

Scroll to the bottom of the page, there's a little 'contact us' button there.

This is a stupid thread.

And IE9 is not a BigFooty product, is it? I believe it's made by Micro-something? Meaning yes it's your browser settings. Allow cookies and stop clearing your browser's cache, history etc every day.

or just use firefox...

 

[MagpieJoel]

People still use Internet Explorer?

Also, thread sounds like rumour to me...in other words, most likely BS.

 

[Jedi01]

All interviews and articles with him contradict your post OP.

I never said his knee cracked because it gave way, yes he smashed it on a rock, when it gave way after being under stress for two hours.

Yes he admits that he is best mates with the majority of the medical staff but that isn't where his beef is. It's the fact that he was made to do an activity on a designated day off and what this has resulted in.

Sorry but in any other case I would dismiss this but I can tell you it's fact. While I like to believe that Collingwood is the place everyone wants to stay at real life doesn't work that way and when someone feels that as a result of an organisation misleading them and getting them to do something they weren't supposed to I say they have every right to be annoyed.

Don't get this confused with a Nath wants to leave or Nath will never talk to the club again thread. At the point in time when my mate was at his house this was Nath's personal opinion and not one displayed through the club website.

At the time, maybe a week or two ago, Nath was still fuming.

I allow cookies and rarely clean my browsers cache etc Mr Know-all!

 

[The New Breid]

Sounds like bullshit. Very unlikely he would have been 2 weeks away from playing if he was so concerned with his reconstructed knee.

Stole my thunder. Utter crap. He's done for the year, probably would've been a stretch to play this year anyway. Time to move on.

 

[Ed D]

I don't know how he could be upset at the club for him slipping over while walking, and if he is he needs to take responsibility for it himself.

 

[ThePheonix]

Your a bad liar, that is excalty what you said "greater stress on his good knee and it eventually gave way resulting in a split knee cap" Your story has more holes in it than swiss cheese.

I think noone here believes your story, and rightfully so!

 

[Good_Old]

Sure they do, don't tell me you use google chrome?

Uhm lol, how does this mean he's lying? All it says to me, is he left the obvious out of initial story thinking people would join the dots.
Extra stress on knee, it gives way, smashes it on a rock, and splits it.......

I don't beleive his story either, but this in no way is proof of him lying.

 

[Bay Pie]

FWIW, I don't think the champ 2004 is lying, rather has had a very convincing friend having a lend of him.

No way was Nate 2 weeks from playing. Nate may be spitting chips but it was an accident and deep down he'd know that.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Yeah, the 2 weeks from playing strikes me as being the height of BS, there's simply no way that that's true with an autograft. If he's "not talking" to the club he needs to HTFU anyway. Totally unprofessional. It's not as if the club sent him there so that he could get anything less than the best available rehabilitation. Accidents happen.

Having said that, I just don't find the story to be credible and hence will hereby ignore it completely.
