Brown

Tarni Brown made her way to the Club in the 2023 AFLW trade period, via a four-way trade with Collingwood, St Kilda and North Melbourne. Brown, daughter of Gavin Brown, arrived at Collingwood through their first-ever father-daughter selection in the 2020 AFLW Draft. Joining Abbie McKay, the AFLW’s first-ever father-daughter selection, Brown is predominantly positioned in the midfield, with the ability to play either as an inside or outside midfielder. Brown also has the versatility and composure in front of goals to push forward. Her speed and ability to create in the forward half is sure to excite Carlton fans in future years. The 21-year-old is experienced at the AFLW level, playing 34 games in her four seasons at Collingwood, with four of those coming in finals: she kicked the match-winning goal in the Pies’ victory over North Melbourne in 2021.
