About how I see him too.
And good depth, seeing as how he can play either end.

So how far away is he? With Ambrose gone for another couple of months and deaās performances as third tall weāre going to look a little short down there against some sides.
Port being one
Due to return the week after the bye, youād expect through the VFL.
I didnāt ask a questionā¦check mate!
hahaā¦can you interpret that for us now.
Dinner is fish tonight?
Hate it when we look a little short fish.
Makes us appear a bit piscatorial, ā¦ and we aint no minnow of this comp.
Flakey post if ever there was one.
Couta been so much batter.
Really think he could appeal to a side struggling for a key back who can swing forward.
Could form āpartā of a trade where we could secure a mid of some note.
Not in the habit of just signing someoneās papers, but if we have any kind of depth itās in tall backs.
And imo heās at the tail end of that list.
He aināt getting traded.
Is arguably best 22 as 3rd tall defender and even if he isnāt we need ready made talent who CAN do the job when called upon when injuries hit.
He also can do a very good job as 3rd fwd as needed.
Itās about a squad of 30 players who are capable. Not just a best 22.
Oh f.m.d
Does anyone here know burger business in footscay on Nicholson St ( you should acquaint yourself if you donāt). Anyway I blame that on them
Fit and available
Multiple articles on the EFC site about Parish et al playing VFL this weekā¦ apparently no one told them Brown is back.
Come on.
Saved our bacon in the last qtr with help from Dea and the ump.
Essendon Football Club is pleased to announce, Mitch Brown, will āDon the Sashā again 2018 after signing a new deal with the Bombers.
Brown is known for his versatility, after playing important roles in both defence and attack during his two seasons at the Club.
Currently recovering from ankle surgery, the 26 year-old is optimistic about a return before seasonās end.
āI believe the Club has a bright future ahead and Iām excited to be a part what we are building towards,ā Brown said.
āIām really enjoying my footy under Woosha and the coaching staff, and we have a talented group of players who have bought into a collective vision which I want to be a part of.
āItās great to know the Club has faith in me, and my focus now is to get back to full fitness and have a crack at returning before the end of the season.ā
Senior Coach, John Worsfold, said it was great to have Mitch recommit for next season.
āBrowny is a talented tall player who has really embraced his second opportunity on an AFL list. Last year offered him a chance but he was the one that needed to show how much he wanted it, which he did,ā Worsfold said.
āHis ability to play multiple positions for us provides the team with real flexibility, and weāre really pleased heās going to be part of our journey moving forward.
āMitch has been diligent with his rehabilitation, and his resilience and perseverance this year is a huge credit to him.
The way he has handled his setbacks reflects the values we look for in a player to represent the Club.ā
List & Recruiting Manager, Adrian Dodoro, said he is excited the swingman will continue to be a part of Essendonās future.
"To be able to produce solid performances, whether it be in the forward line or back line, makes him an incredibly dangerous player for us,ā Dodoro said.
āObviously, Browny has had a testing couple of months, but we have full faith in him to make a successful return to the game.
āWe believe he can get back to playing his best football and weāre prepared to help him through this tough time and hope to see him back at his best next year.ā
Brown played 15 games with Geelong before joining Essendon. Heās play 25 games with the Bombers and kicked 20 goals.
Fantastic player to have for depth.
Can fill any position on the ground if needed.
Wonāt ever be best 22 in his time at bomberland, but a vital cog in building a premiership winning list.
I think his best is really good. Be interesting to see how he goes
before injury he was cemneted in best 22 AFAIK. I felt he was a great 3rd tall forwardā¦ but once Stewart came along he went backā¦ and he was going great there tooā¦ he was starting off the square playing as a tall mid for parts as well.
When Kelly goes, Gleeson will direct trafiic and Brown will take his (gleesons) current role playing on third tall forward. Well thats how i see the future. will be a pretty tight back line with a good mix of size/pace etcā¦ i imagine
Iād imagine Ambrose would be ahead of Brown.
But thatās just my opinion.
For me, Brown is behind these guys as tall forwards
Daniher, Hooker, Stewart, Francis
and behind these guys as tall backs
Hurley, Hartley, Ambrose, Francis, and dare I say Ridley next year.
As I said, very good depth player, and you need 44 players to build a premiership list.
Fringe jobber. everyone needs them, serves as injury back up.*
*when heās not injured.
While weāre at it in here - Mods can we fix the thread title please? Mitch was drafted in Nov 2015 so the āWelcomeā is pretty staleā¦
Also include #28 for easy thread searching. Thanks.
