AFL Career
Brown was selected by the Brisbane Lions in the 1999 AFL Draft under the Father-Son Rule and subsequently made the move to Brisbane and was immediately groomed as the club's centre half forward. The next year he played his first senior game for the Lions as an 18 year old, against the Adelaide Crows, in Round 5 of 2000. Brown failed to register a statistic in that game and his best game in his opening year came against Fremantle in the final round of the season when he had 23 disposals and two goals.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“It is a great many years since at the outset of my career I had to think seriously what life had to offer that was worth having. I came to the conclusion that the chief good for me was freedom to learn, think, and say what I pleased, when I pleased. I have acted on that conviction... and though strongly, and perhaps wisely, warned that I should probably come to grief, I am entirely satisfied with the results of the line of action I have adopted.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
