Matt Rowell is a professional Australian rules footballer who plays for the Gold Coast Suns in the Australian Football League. Born on 1 July 2001 in Sydney and raised in Melbourne, he played junior football with the Canterbury Cobras and the Oakleigh Chargers, and was named best on ground in the NAB League Grand Final. Gold Coast recruited him with the first selection in the 2019 AFL draft, and he debuted in round 1 of the 2020 season, earning a Rising Star nomination in his second game before a dislocated shoulder ended his first year early. After a strong 2023 season in which he played every match, he had a career-best 2025, winning the Brownlow Medal with 39 votes, selection in the All-Australian team and the club champion award as the Suns reached their first finals series.
