Former Richmond and Western Bulldogs star Nathan Brown has cautioned Mitch Wallis, who broke both bones in his leg during the Dogs' loss on Saturday night, to not rush his recovery. Wallis fractured his tibia and fibula in a sickening moment at Etihad Stadium, where he accidentally kicked his left leg while being tackled by Shane Savage. Brown broke the same two bones while playing for Richmond in round 10 of the 2005 season. He returned in round one of the following season but says he came back too early. "The only thing I'd say to Mitch Wallis is you're a young kid, you've got a lot of time. Don't try and rush it," Brown said. "Everybody told me not to rush it. I did and I was probably never the same player."

"At this stage he's focused on getting himself physically right. He had a little operation last week that was sort of similar to what Judd had and obviously recovered from."

"I love Richmond, I love the club and I'd love to be part of the rebuilding process. "If I'm not then I'm not and I wish Damien well. Even if he does move me on, I think he's the right man for the job. He's a hard nut and he'll bring a very hard sort of focus to the football club and I hope the club gets back on its feet."

"He needs to be able to prove he can pull up and recover and then play again."

Monday, 21 April 2008
Brian Lake is accused by Richmond coach Terry Wallace and Tiger Nathan Brown of feigning an injury to avoid taking a crucial kick for goal. With the Bulldogs trailing in the last quarter, Lake took a contested pack mark only to hobble off the ground with the kick being awarded to teammate Will Minson instead. Will Minson duely kicks a goal which results in a drawn game between the two sides. Terry Wallace voices his opinion on Lake's injury saying that he is sure Lake will be available to play in the coming match. Nathan Brown also agrees with his coach saying that Lake's tactics were 'clever'. "I don't think Brian was injured, I just think Brian was very clever. He got the kick to someone else, they got the two points which was what he wanted. I think it was very clever from Brian," Brown said. The Bulldogs reject any claim that Lake was fit enough at the time to take the kick. "He certainly tightened up there, no doubt about that," Bulldogs coach Rodney Eade said. "There's no tear. There's no damage to the muscle. He's never done a hamstring before and it's foreign to him. He didn't know what it was." The AFL also weighs in on the debate by conceding that Will Minson should not have been given the kick that should have taken, instead, by Scott Welsh or Cameron Wight.

"It's a great sign for the club to see some of our younger generation emerging as leaders and wanting to take on more responsibility," Tigers coach Terry Wallace said. "Both Chris and Nathan are very hard working, set great examples, and are very much respected within the group. We look forward to them helping shape the future of our club".
