FORMER Richmond forward Nathan Brown has revealed he was offered human growth hormones after snapping his leg in 2005.

Brown, 34, said he declined the invitation which was made about two months after he broke his leg in a sickening clash with Melbourne defender Matthew Whelan.

"I wanted to be back… I did think about it for a fleeting moment, but I just thought how often you would be looking over shoulder if you actually went through with it," Brown told Triple M today.

"I don't think I could live with that guilt."

But Brown conceded the offer stuck in his mind during his lengthy rehabilitation.

The dual All Australian said he sympathised with Essendon players caught up in the doping scandal.

"I thought it was a pretty pure and clean game (football)… I never thought this day would come," Brown said.

"It's disappointing what's happened to the Bombers… I genuinely believe those players wouldn't take anything knowingly.

"If it turns out to be something very naïve and they haven't covered their bases, then they could be in some trouble."
