Brown has a level head and has all the attributes of a half (good kicking, passing and running game). What makes you think he couldn’t steer the team to their spots?
He's what, 21? Sorry mate he's talented but guys that age running a team around, in terms of successful teams, it's like hens teeth. I know Benji did a flick pass but that's not the norm. And it's no knock on Brown.

The Roosters will be banking on it with Flanagan this year. Do you think they’ll be successful?

What team will be successful if their first choice half goes down? Dylan Brown is as capable as any other 2nd choice half. Roosters are using Kyle Flanagan. Do you know how old he is?
Manly don’t even have a 6. If DCE goes down who are they going to use?

I think what it shows is that with Moses out (not the most experienced himself), we're struggling for leadership. We need a bit of luck.
I reckon we have more effective leaders in 2020 than in previous years. From TCT reports (and players involved in origin camps) Gutho, RCG, Jennings, Matterson, Moses and Fergo are all standing out as leaders this pre season.
And that’s a pretty good spread of leaders across the field:
2 in the spine, 1 centre, 1 winger, an edge forward and a middle forward.

Brown would be a good halfback if needed. I think his directness, and probably being partnered with another direct player in Salmon, would allow us to play a simpler game than Moses and negate his inexperience a little bit too.

Kick to the corners and probe the edges. Every now and again he can sweep to Waqa or Jennings. We'd be ok

54 years old apparently. The Roosters really are in the shit if they’re banking on Shane.
