Tyson Edwards was born on 6 August 1976 and is a former Australian rules footballer who played for the Adelaide Football Club in the Australian Football League. Raised in the small Mallee town of Wynarka, he was recruited from West Adelaide in the SANFL, debuted in the AFL in 1995 and came to be regarded as one of the most consistent and durable players the game has seen. His greatest honours were as a member of Adelaide's 1997 and 1998 premiership sides. He played his 300th game in 2009, retired in 2010 after 321 games and, with Andrew McLeod, held the record for most matches played together in the VFL and AFL until 2025. He was later an assistant coach at Port Adelaide from 2012 to 2015.
