I think Brown's long term health is the issue here not tanking.

Both Really. He could Potentially finished the season off so Him Retiring is good for his health and also for the Team. Let them Play the Kidsselkevh wrote:I think Brown's long term health is the issue here not tanking.

should have happened 2 years ago.
Most overrated player since Sticks Kernahan- and like sticks has played a massive part in the downfall of his club.
Brisbane would not be in the dire position it is now had Brown not been idolised and allowed to create a bullying culture that is best suited country footy of the 1970s
Good riddance

Champion in every sense of the word, would have loved him a Magpie for sure. Had he played for us wed have 3 more flags, I reckon. Awesome player at his best, one all time great CHF.

Took the words out of my mouth, PNC.
There may be alot of media attention on Brown in the future with regards to concussion and how it will/may affect him later in life.
I hope for his sake he is going to fully recover and live to 80+.
Good luck Browny.

mate this place pisses me off sometimes.
what a bunch of jerk off jealous nasty arrogant and just plain damn wrong balony.
Jonathon Brown.
whilst I do believe the AFL handed out that threepeat on a platter, the simply truth is Brownie is a Champion. yep, he has certainly done things on the field only a brassy fan could approve of.
but man, when we played them, back then and more recently, He lined up for goal and you felt that dread in the pit of your stomach. he never shirked a contest. his smashed up body attests to that.
while I will always Despise Brisbane because the AFL cheated for them, I will always have respect for the footy talent of one Jonathon Brown.
Well done sir, and more than one person in this house hold shed a tear. I hate to see the true legends of the game finish. and on the note he did. its a shame.
well done, and thankyou for the memories (apart from the ones against us!!)
cheers

A great career by a well-liked player but not surprised by his decision to retire. Brown never reached the heights of Carey as some were comparing him to early in his career but nevertheless he's had a stellar career.
I think he's made the right call for the sake of his health and family. He's had too many concussions for anyone's liking so I think it's a wise call by him to call it quits now.
A great career by a towering presence and I wish him all the best in his next stage of his life. He'll be remembered as a Brisbane champion especially during the period of their struggles which are ongoing currently.
Well-played Browny!

sorry guys, didn't see this one, was pissed off at the other one, so didn't look before I started the tribute thread!
mods please delete the other, but my words stand:
We all love football, and with out worthy opponents there is no worthwhile game for us to watch,
So put your good stuff here. and id respectfully ask that those with nothing nice to say, simply go on to the next thread.
Well done Browny. you and your mates might have broken my heart on that one day in September, 2002, but there is no doubt in my mind your a champion. a true Aussie Legend.
Always put your body on the line, those scars will always attest to that.
Played a year too long? or played an extra year to support the kids?
whatever, I salute you and heartfeltly, thankyou for the memories.
