Dylan Brown is overrated

[JokerEel]

Maybe a new coach will snap him into the player he should be

 

[Gary Gutful]

Probably the dumbest merkin we have had since Corey Norman and that ended in tears.

Corey Norman makes Corey Parker sound like a Rhodes Scholar. What a f**ken idiot that guy was.

Dylbro is a distant second but still pretty dumb.

 

[Jake the snake]

He's been in the team for a while now and hasn't set the world on fire. He was a boy when he came in and is now a man but I don't see much mental development in his game.

He’s mentally good at posting on instagram and the socials. Very consistent, very involved. If he just only applied himself to his 800k contract consistently and not hide when times get tough. Flat track bullly.

 

[JokerEel]

I blame BA for not simplifying his game especially when Moses was Injured.

He isn't a halfback

 

[the phantom menace]

I do think Galvin will be the better value of the two players, in terms of contract value/likely future contract value and week-to-week consistency.

Brown appears to have peaked imo.

Always doing stupid shit on his social media pages and hamming it up at training. The guy is a peanut. Probably the dumbest merkin we have had since Corey Norman and that ended in tears.

I cannot see this marriage ending well.

It's funny you mention Norman.

BA gave him the captaincy as well for a few games in 2015.

Just like he gave Dylan the captaincy before he got punted when Gutho was injured.

I guess BA had a knack of spotting quality leadership

He's a peanut promoter.

Not really.

He's just as likely to have a good game against quality opposition as he is shit opposition. The problem is that he doesn't have enough good games.

What your using my Peanuts now?

I'd say he is on 900k not 800k.

I've always thought Brown was overrated; right through his career so far. He's a good, solid five-eight. But he's no superstar. Far too one dimensional in his play. Doesn't read a game too well. Great defensive five-eight, but that's only half the game. Can't understand why anyone would want him to be our fullback.

 

[T-Boon]

Give him a go at fullback. He is a good ball runner. I think Talagi needs to be closer to the action:
Brown
Simmonson
Gutherson
Penisini
Russell
Talagi
Moses

RCG is our only player who isn't overrated so this thread title could basically be 99% of our roster

I thought he had a ball tearer yesterday.

I think there was method in that madness somewhere. But it didn’t/hasn't worked with those two.

 

[T-Boon]

I’d be all in on whatever is best for Talagi for next season. I think he is our best young back in many years.
I’d also try to get Galvin.

 

[Noise]

He's a strong runner of the ball but has no idea how to set up his outside players. His footy IQ is pretty shit. I don't reckon he watches / analyses much footy. He just runs and steps off his left foot.

 

[T-Boon]

…

 

[T-Boon]

He has always made heaps of half breaks. Maybe if he is able to run in the middle more, like a fullback can, he would turn those into full breaks - against slower defenders.

Great point. I’m completely off Dylan Brown. My son’s friends see him partying hard every weekend. His discipline is non existent. Hopefully a new coach gives him a Lomax type of assessment on where he is at.

Running at Reed Mahoney was his motivation.
