HUDDERSFIELD utility back Kevin Brown has engaged an Australian agent to find him an NRL club as soon as possible.

I dont think he's good enough

Burgess not count as an English player?

Good on him, looked a real promising talent when at wigan and hes still young, the more players we have out here the better

Hes got more chance of getting into the US NRL than the Australian version.

The lad has never quite fufilled his early promise but alot of that imo was down to Wigan really struggling and losing alot of experienced heads around the time he was just settling into the side. He lost alot of confidence when the crowd got on his back. The expectations on him were too high.

He does seem to have kicked on at Huddersfield though and looks to be getting his confidence back.

I hope it goes well for him.

Ian Sibbet, Keith Mason, Jordan Tansey, Richie Mathers, Chris Thorman all got starts in the NRL, brown could easily get a start too, maybe not first choice starter but if the lad wants to try a new lifestyle and can get a club why are people so quick to knock him?

I think he's a talented player - relatively big for a back yet very athletic with good hands. Not the most consistent but he's improved with age, similar to Chris Bridge really in that he was touted for big things early but took his time to perform at the standard expected of him. Hope it works out for him, if he's committed to it then I think he's got enough talent to succeed over there.

not after 3 years when he qualifies for australia and they start waving a NSW origin jumper at him..

What is it with people thinking every single player in the NRL is superman and its a league far far far superior to our own (although it is agreed it is better).

Lets not forget Ellis has become one of the best players in that league, Morley didn't do a half decent job. Even Tansey and Thorman went down and did ok and played pkenty of first grade.

Brown is a good player and would play week in week out at a decent club, its fact. The sooner we get over this superiority factor, thats half the battle.

Thats funny because some of the NRL imports aren't good enough for Super League.

Assuming he has modest wage demands, he'll have no problem getting a first team place, and even if he perform averagely, it'll do his international chances the world of good.

If Thorman can make it, anyone can!

Did Thorman make it?

FWIW, I think Brown's a player who is solid in all departments, which is something the Aussies seem to like. I could imagine him getting a run as a utility three-quarter, but I'd be surprised if any NRL club would plump for him at stand-off.
