Matthew Roberts was selected with pick 34 of the 2021 AFL draft. A hard-working midfielder with an ability to play forward, Roberts is known for his quality football IQ and having a keen eye for goal after appearing in the SANFL League and SANFL Reserves. The South Australian export made his debut with the Sydney Swans in Round 11 of the 2022 season helping the team secure a win against Richmond. He built on this performance in 2023 and appeared in six matches for the red and white, kicking his first ever AFL goal for the club. He will stay with the Sydney Swans until at least 2025 after signing a two-year extension on his contract.
