Nathan Brown sought dad's blessing

FORMER AFL player Nathan Brown is heading down the aisle after popping the question to his "knocked up" girlfriend in Bali.

With their first child due on December 8, Brown got down on bended knee and proposed to Kristine Fabiyanic.

"I rang the old man (Kristine's father) first to get the permission," Brown told Triple M's Rush Hour.

"He's a church minister ... and considering I got her knocked up about six months ago, I wasn't really asking for his permission. I was more asking for his blessing."

Brown put plenty of thought into the proposal.

"I got a private cabana on the beach and had these little Balinese guys set up a five-course dinner and after they disappeared, I got down on one knee," he said.

"I said, 'Look, Kristine, you've made me the happiest man in the world at the moment, looking forward to spending the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?' There was a few tears."

Love is not cheap, Brown has discovered. "I didn't know how much I needed to spend (on the ring) so I got a bit of an idea off a few people ... three months' wages, they say," he said.

"Lucky I'm not an AFL footy player any more, because my last year at Richmond they were paying me a small country so now I'm on bugger-all, so it didn't really cost that much."

Good looking young lady, Well done Nathan.

I only have one question.

How many games did he play for us? (more than 100 I hope?)

he was at tigerland for 6 seasons (I think), so probably not given his injuries.

82.  But if it's any consolation '65, Pettifer played 113 and Tambling played 102 so we have their offspring stitched up!

real shame we couldn't get a 100 out of Browny, a genuine freaky talent and he genuinely loves tigerland from what I can gather.

IT was a big Grand Final weekend for former Richmond pin-up Nathan Brown, who married his long-time partner Kristine Fabiyanic at Circa in St Kilda last night.

Before he made his vows, Brown made sure he fulfilled all his post-Grand Final duties in his role as panellist on Nine's Sunday Footy Show early yesterday morning.

After talking all things footy, he raced off to prepare for his wedding.

It is understood he had former Richmond skipper Matthew Richardson in his bridal party and Tigers assistant coach Wayne Campbell delivered a reading.

Brown and Fabiyanic have a daughter, Ava Rose, born in December last year.

if he is at the club for 6 seasons thats more than 100 ... dosent have to play the games just has to be at the club !

So 24 games a season for six seasons he was an offical tiger that 24x6 = 144 days of being a tiger

[Owl]

is that fairdinkum?

[JVT]

Only played 82 games with us, were 22 games every season when he was playing.
