Interestingly he played 4 games in 2010 and has played 9 games this year. None in 2011 or 2012. He also spent time at Manly before joining the Dogs.

Someone at the Club must rate him.....

Is this a strange signing ?

I meant more..why Tim Browne ?

Doesn't seem to have set the world on fire with his games appearances...certainly not at Club level.

I know nothing about him though.

Someone might tell me that he is going to be the next Gallen or Thaiday...but I suspect they won't.

So...like I said someone at the Club must rate him

Maybe...but is there anyone out there that actually knows much (anything) about him ?

All I can find on him is that he's won a premiership in both qld cup and nsw cup

Guys on the kennel have rated him for awhile now, but they have plenty of forwards there. He will be a good pick up for us

Browne should be a reasonable pick up for us but if it is a choice of the two I would prefer to re-sign Dayne Weston. Who knows we might do both. Ryles and Setu are leaving and the talk is that Noz might go to the ESL, so we might have both of them next year.
