Connor Rozee Biography

Monday, 11 December 2023
Connor Rozee signs a massive eight-year contract with Port Adelaide and is named captain of the club for 2024, with Zak Butters serving as vice-captain.

"To wear the number one guernsey is something I'm incredibly proud of and I won't take for granted. I feel I'm ready to lead our group moving forward," Rozee said.

Tuesday, 6 December 2022
Connor Rozee's move to the midfield this year has seen him win the John Cahill Medal as Port Adelaide's best and fairest player for the 2022 season.

Rozee was the standout vote-getter and finished 30 votes clear of Travis Boak in second spot.

Sunday, 7 March 2021
Connor Rozee will miss the start of the premiership season after opting for surgery on his problematic foot.

"I've seen a couple of specialists and there seems to be a little bit of something that shouldn't be in my foot," Rozee told Fox Sports.

"They're still not sure what it is ... hopefully that (time out after surgery) will only be three or four weeks maximum."

Friday, 16 October 2020
Connor Rozee credits Port Adelaide coach Ken Hinkley for allowing him to flourish at AFL level.

"Pretty much as soon as I walked in the door Ken said 'There's going to be a lot of new things you're going to have to learn and a lot of structures different to what you've previously played under, but the main thing is we want you to bring your strengths'," Rozee said.

"The main reason they draft players is because they've got strengths they can bring to the team and if they can bring those strengths it will make us a better team. That's what he told me from day one and is what has made me a better player since then."

Monday, 4 November 2019
After finishing 2019 as the Power's leading goalkicker, Connor Rozee says he is eager to continue the next step in his development as a pacy midfielder.

"Hopefully as the year progresses I can push into the midfield a little bit more," Rozee said.

"Endurance is probably the main thing I want to improve, especially if I'm looking to move into the midfield. Hopefully, keep building that and maybe put on a few more kilos as well will help me move into the midfield."

Friday, 30 August 2019
Connor Rozee polls 42 votes to finish runner-up to Sam Walsh on 54 votes for the 2019 AFL Rising Star award.
Wednesday, 7 August 2019
Connor Rozee is among the favourites to win the 2019 AFL Rising Star award but says he'd much prefer to help Port Adelaide into September.

Rozee has booted 23 goals and averaged 15.2 disposals per game playing across half-forward so far in 2019.

He's the Power's leading goalkicker, is fifth in the League for tackles inside 50 and is in the top three for players eligible for the NAB AFL Rising Star award for tackles, goals, contested possessions and inside 50s.

"Everyone talks about that externally a fair bit, but I couldn't care less. I'd rather play finals footy than win an individual award," Rozee said.

"It's been good to have an impact in my first season and people talk about you a little bit, but I couldn't really care less what goes on with that sort of stuff."

Tuesday, 9 July 2019
Draftees Connor Rozee, Xavier Duursma and Zak Butters have all re-committed to the Power, signing two-year contract extensions to remain at the club until the end of 2022.
Monday, 8 April 2019
A five-goal performance from Connor Rozee earns him the 2019 round three AFL Rising Star nomination.

"He arrived a very well-developed young man physically and mentally, and in terms of his craft, his knowledge and game sense, which was a breath of fresh air," Port Adelaide assistant coach Brett Montgomery said of Rozee.

"Apart from his obvious talents with the ball – being clean, his silky-smooth skills and his decision-making – he's one of these rare kids who understands his role in team defence and at stoppage to set the ground up. He's got a high level of footy acumen and intellect. He's as good as anyone I've seen in those areas."

Saturday, 23 March 2019
Connor Rozee makes his AFL debut for Port Adelaide at the MCG with 18 disposals (6 kicks and 12 handballs), 5 marks and 5 tackles in a 26-point win over Melbourne.
Friday, 23 November 2018
Port Adelaide select Connor Rozee with pick No.5 in the 2018 National Draft.

“That a player of Connor’s class was still available at pick 5 made it a very easy decision for us. The fact that he is a local South Australian is just a bonus,” Port Adelaide recruiting manager Geoff Parker said.

“He is a very good mark for his size, uses the ball well and is very versatile demonstrating an ability to play both forward or back, or in the midfield.”
