Vin Brown
Edward Vincent Brown was an Australian rules footballer who played for Carlton in the Victorian Football League during the 1940s.
Brown possessed exceptional pace, he was a Stawell Gift finalist in 1946, and was used on the wing when he started out at Carlton during the 1941 VFL season. In his second season Brown began playing as a key defender to fill the gap left by players who were serving in the war. He went onto be full-back in Carlton's 1945 premiership side, and was considered best on ground in the grand final when he stood South Melbourne's star forward Laurie Nash.
Brown was a half back flanker in Carlton's next premiership, playing most of the Grand Final on Essendon's leading player Dick Reynolds. A twisted ankle sustained in the 1948 VFL season prompted Brown to retire.
His father Ted Brown was also a dual premiership player at Carlton, only Sergio and Stephen Silvagni have repeated this feat for the club.
His younger brother, John, also played for Carlton.
