Do328 has 2 latches which must be lifted and held up (once at flight idle stops) allowing movement into ground idle then reverse. However if the power lever/s are not totally flush with the stops the latch/s will NOT lift and the power lever/s will jam. The only way to sort this is to advance the power levers back into flight idle and try again! Bearing in mind that if the Fo is flying, from the point of recognition then declaring to the capt the problem, then the capt assuming control lots of runway has already passed by. If this was the case Yes the brakes would stop the a/c but it would probably come to rest in a similar position to the one in Abz.
P.s in no way am I saying this is what happened at Abz, i'm just answering a previous question.
