From personal experience - Nathan Brown is an A-Grade ******.

I played some footy with the bloke and he had a crack at my missus! I am a lover not a fighter but safe to say that the other lads in the team saved him from a hiding. I am about 70kgs dripping wet and he was cowering. Not much of a fighter - just a smartarse. (I must admit that we was potentially the best player that I ever played with). My missus told him that even if he cut his hair and grew a foot he still didn't have a chance. :cool:

I then had the unfortunate experience of being involved in some business deals and got to see his ego basically ruin one business. He screwed over Craig Ellis who is the most passive bloke on the planet and even Craig can't be in the same room as him.

His mail is crap. His commentary overreaches. His ego is writing cheques that his brains can't cash.

Craig Hutchison (don't get me started) has stacked trade radio with a first class line-up of idiots with no mail and no mates.

I refuse to listen to it out of principal.

Rant over.
Is that business the Black Byrd clothes label? I'd heard he ****ed over Craig Ellis really badly with that

Golden Square?

Funny as he actually was talking about business dealings with Craig Ellis today when I was listening.
 
WOW.
Where did you play footy with him? Seems like his ego is bigger than his brain.
Looks like they chose well when deciding who should pair up with Barrett, maybe Barrett recommended him to take the heat off his own shortcomings.

Not at AFL level.

No mate.

Was he bagging Ellis or plugging his new gear? They had a falling out a while back but perhaps they have hugged it out since??

You have good mail my man. It was actually the St Lenny t-shirt business (no connection to the great man). Black Byrd (named after the band) was what Brown set up straight afterwards. Ellis was the brains, effort and style. Brownie just ran around telling everyone that he owned a T-Shirt business and that was about it. :rolleyes:

Brown was also involved in the Waterside deal with Rooey from memory.

He was talking about a fashion label that they had together… were offered money for a share which Ellis rejected… they then split as business partners & Ellis went on to this new business which is now worth $100,000,000 or something.

It was a really bizarre anecdote to be honest…

Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

Was this on Trade Radio or The Bold and the Beautiful?

Yea heard that as well mate.

Ellis & Brown shared the St Lenny clothing line. Brown got out, Ellis buying his share, then went bankrupt.

Ellis has since started a bikini line 'Triangl' which Kim Kardashian & other celebs are into. Ellis now worth 100mill.

Why is Joey our #1 midfielder to stop? Not Jack.

Because he is the most damaging... Before that it was Dal, and BJ... Before that Lenny.

Jack has got elite a attribute and flaws.... But he is a quality AFL mid regardless

Armo, I would hate to see go... He is a warrior.... We are a worse team without him... He could lead this midfield until we are a contender.... He is our modern day Greg Burns.

His growth suggests captaincy before Luke D for me...

Greg Burns..:cool:

Armo would've loved the fact we use to water the Moorabbin ground the night before we played.. Clubs would come to Moorabbin in the early-mid 80's & find the centre of the ground just a quagmire..lol.. Players like Greg Burns would thrive on the slow/muddy Moorabbin as a "one paced head down bum up centreman".. Like Armo his best work was at stoppages.

Ahh Burnesy!! :thumbsu: Would have been a great centre half forward if his legs matched his body :p
I loved watching him at Moorabbin with the great man and Joffa et al.

Amen! They were the good old days (not in terms of wins). Burns, Joffa, the great man Barks, David Grant, the list goes on

Smoky great, except as you said, we didn't win often. We did have some memorable players though.
 
I'm handing in my badge, was the lucky guy to get Frankie Peckett call up to speak to the MD, as is practice, write name down, company, discuss with PA if they'll take the call, transferred, then 2 mins later twigged it was Frankie. Much ashamed.
