Tom Brown (born 31 March 1990) is a Scottish rugby union player who plays for Edinburgh in the RaboDirect Pro12.[1] He plays primarily at full-back, but is also able to play on the wing.
Career
Tom Brown made his Edinburgh Rugby debut against Leinster at Murrayfield in September 2010, and impressed sufficiently throughout the rest of the campaign, he offered a one-year contract for the 2010–11 season at Edinburgh Rugby,[1] after some strong performances for the Scotland under-20 team at the IRB Junior World Championship in the 2009 IRB Junior World Championship in Japan and the 2010 IRB Junior World Championship in Argentina.
After regular and solid displays for Edinburgh, Brown was rewarded with a two-year contract extension in April 2014.[2]
Brown made the cut for Scotland's 2012 summer tour the Australia and Pacific Islands, during which he made his debut for Scotland off the bench in the historic victory against Australia.[2]
