Brown delayed a decision on his future until meeting with new Senior Coach Justin Leppitsch, and has agreed to a new one-year deal.
“I’ve still got the passion to play, but I was also mindful of the fact that the new coach might have other plans,” Brown said.
“But I had a good chat with Leppa and he basically laid out his plans and said he saw me as being part of them.
“I feel as though I still have some pretty good footy left in me, particularly after finishing last season earlier than I would have liked.
“Plus, with such a young group, hopefully I can play a role in helping to continue bring that next generation of Lions forwards through.”
Brown has played 245 games and 573 goals with the Lions since being drafted under the Father/Son Rule at the 1999 AFL National Draft.
