Playing career
Early career
In 2012 and 2013, Brown played for the Wests Tigers' NYC team.[2][3] On 30 September 2012, he played in the Tigers' 2012 NYC Grand Final win over the Canberra Raiders.[4] On 18 July 2013, he re-signed with the Tigers on a 3-year contract.[5]
2013
In Round 24 of the 2013 NRL season, Brown made his NRL debut for the Tigers against the St. George Illawarra Dragons.[6] As the Tigers had exceeded their second-tier salary cap, the NRL had to grant a special dispensation for Brown to play as neither team could reach the semi-finals. However, Brown was precluded from playing in any further games for the season.[7]
2015
On 2 March, Brown signed a 2-year contract with the South Sydney Rabbitohs effective immediately, after being released from his Tigers contract.[8] He made his Rabbitohs debut in Round 6 of the 2015 NRL season against the North Queensland Cowboys.[9] He finished off the 2015 season having played in seven games for the Rabbitohs, starting in the second-row on two occasions.[10]
