After two seasons of frustration due to complications with his badly broken leg of 2005, Brown was finally back to near his best last year, playing 18 games and booting 35 goals before succumbing to a hip injury at season’s end. The former Bulldog would have gained confidence from stints on the ball, and has seemingly lost nothing in the skill department.
