Riley Brown (born on October 15, 1984 in Bundaberg, Queensland) is a professional Australian rugby league player who is currently contracted with the Sydney Roosters. Brown made his First Grade debut on April 4, 2004 for the Newcastle Knights against the St George Illawarra Dragons at WIN Stadium. After playing 40 games for the Knights, Brown was signed by the Sydney Roosters for the 2008 season. Plays best at hooker but can play centre.

In his first game for the Roosters, Brown infamously injured former Rooster and current South Sydney player Craig Wing in the 8th minute of the match. Wing suffered a dislocated shoulder and is not expected to return until later in the season. By contrast, the Rabbitohs are still winless this year.
