Its pretty clear that N.Brown's cards have been marked. Something has happened which means he wont be picked. None of us really know what that 'something' is.
I know what the 'something' is but I can't really say much on here.... PM me your internet banking details and I'll post something in there about it. Trust me...

He wasn't poor in 2021.

Stats are way more reliable than your kraken addled, agenda driven, patchy as f**k memory.
How many Canberra games did you watch?? He was so good the Raiders were happy to move him on and keep a midget plodder like Starling lol.

I watched a lot of their games and became friends with a few well connected raiders fans when I lived down there. Hodgson and Stuart clashed, like Stuart does with a lot of his halves. I wouldn't read too much into him leaving.

I'll agree that he didnt reach the heights of 2019, but he certainly wasn't poor in 2021.

Will Des be here?
I think Des is a good coach and I'd like to see what he could do with our squad, but seemingly where he falls down is he puts a lot of conditions in place when he agrees to coach somewhere insisting he has full control of recruitment, retention and the cap behind all of that and that has been where the Dogs and Manly have found themselves in strife at the tail end of his tenure at both clubs... It's a bit of an antiquated model he operates in, that doesn't quite factor in the confines of a salary cap that you need to.... He'd be better off at the Roosters in that case!!!

I thought he was average, I thought he struggled with the new faster game and overplayed his hand quite a bit. The Raiders forum was very critical of his style of play and that the new game didn’t seem to suit him. Stuart clashes with Hodgson over the half wanting to leave, but let’s face it Stuart would clash with an empty room.

Doesn't even need a mirror.
