| Good signing for you, always coming off his wing looking for work and makes good yards.

| Well worth taking a chance on. Big, powerhouse wingman who is a great yard-maker and can bust tackles like a second-rower. He's also a great catcher of a high ball on attack. His only drawbacks are a slight tendency for brainfarts in defence, and a slight lack of speed - he's no slouch, but maybe not quite quick enough for SL. Good luck Alex!

| Says he's aiming to play 10 games next year, so coming in as a squad player I'd assume.
Standard new signing cliche, but here's hoping he goes well and best of luck to him.

| The type of big bruising wingman we have needed (Ryan Hall type) for a while, well worth the chance he has been handed.

| Just typed in Alex Brown - Highlights in you tube and i have to say he looks a strong guy with a fair bit of pace as well.
Some of the Batley fans say he may have an issue with some high balls in SL but hopefuly in a full time environment its an area of his game that he can improve on, he certainly could be one for the future, how old is he?.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| Never heard of him.
Think he's brilliant now though.

| Is this the lad who scored the winner in the NRC final a couple of years back? (when Batley beat Widnes). Obviously I have seen nowt of Batley, but I remember the winger having a belter that day.
Best keep a lid on it and see how he goes rather than attemting to trumpet every signing as a future international. Besides, as frankie points out, the last 2 are already there!

Some are labelling him the next Uate on your other forum,while i'm not knocking the lad you've got to laugh at some people.

Atleast you can get on there, I tried to join (mainly so I could have a laugh at them - probably the same reason you did) but it got refused by an administrator. Tried again a few days after to ind my email address I used had effectively ben blacklisted.
Fair play if my email was 'iluvtombriscoeandhatehkr@tit.com' but it was just a work one. Couldn't be d after that.

Where does anyone label him the next Uate on the other forum? One poster does say comparison with him and Uate is inevitable and another says he hopes people don't think every winger Rovers sign is another Uate.

| seen brown on many occasions... in the under 20's when at huddersfield and he looked a stand out player (came late to rugby league i think) and ready to burst into the super league scene... he got one game at st helens a few seasons back and did very well
unfortunately for brown his rise came at the same time as mcgillvary for us and was no space for him anymore which i was disapointed with and he went off down the road to batley...where as i expected he has been a standout again
strong runner and quick
cant believe hes only 25 good signing for you guys
had david hodsgon not retired yet?!

| Cheers for the info brearley, nice to have a bit of background. You got a clutch of outside backs all make the grade around the same time at Fartown and I suppose he was a casualty of this. Lets hope he fulfills some of that early promise now he has another chance.
