A straight swap of Ball for Brown would suffice. Brown would free up Gilbert and Fisher to be super-attacking, which would in turn free up Goddard to play forward, which would make us very powerful. Brown looked like he was a "gun" last year and he was just 19, very similar to a young Goose, before he had all his injuries.

He's a dud and we already have enough key defenders (remember Goose?). Collingwood won that game by 100 points and plenty of very ordinary players got easy touches.OLB wrote:Brown's an extremely promising key defender.
Second year blues this year but in his first year he was brilliant keeping the likes of Jonathan Brown and Pavlich to very quiet games.
Rising star nominee for this game -

Be highly doubtful if this is the case.....
From wiki.....
Nathan Brown became the third player with the same name in the AFL when he was selected by Collingwood with the 10th selection in the 2006 National AFL Draft. Tall and mobile, Brown is a former basketballer who converted to football recently, and has been earmarked for centre halfback, following some well acclaimed performances for Vic Country in the 2006 Under 18 National Championships.
Brown made his debut for Collingwood in Round One of the 2008 against Fremantle at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in front of 45,000 fans. He immediately made impressions with speed and great defensive attributes against Matthew Pavlich, who is recognised as one of the best forwards in the game, holding him to only one goal. He would follow up immediately, playing on one of the competition's best players, Jonathan Brown of the Brisbane Lions, and Matthew Richardson of Richmond in the next fortnight, holding each to two and one goal(s) respectively.
Despite still yet to make his debut at the time, Nathan was selected as the Collingwood alternative delegate for the AFLPA in 2008, behind vice captains Tarkyn Lockyer, and representative team-mate Nick Maxwell.
Nathan was nominated for the AFL Rising Star Award for his performance in round 10 2008 against the West Coast Eagles in which Collingwood won by 100 points.
Brown won the Harry Collier Award (Best first year player) in 2008.
Surely we'd have to sweeten the deal to get NB.

Not confirmed - so far just a rumour
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

"Pick 62 and N Brown for Ball – apparently its done."
John Clark says: "This one is all but confirmed. Incredible win for the Saints. Ball was going anyway, and they land a very promising key backman. Perhaps now Maguire could be back out there for any takers. Saints the big winners for mine this week."
