AFL career

Brisbane Lions (2009–2017)

Rockliff made his AFL debut in round 18, 2009 against Collingwood, which was the only match he played that season.[2] He recorded five possessions as Brisbane lost by 40 points.

In 2010, Rockliff forced his way back into the senior Brisbane Lions side in round 3, 2010 where he has since featured predominantly in the midfield rotation. He received an AFL Rising Star nomination in round 13, 2010[3] and despite being heavily favoured to win the award,[4] he finished third behind winner Dan Hannebery and Tom Scully in the end of year voting.[5]

For the 2011 season with the Lions, who finished 15th on the ladder after only managing four wins, Rockliff averaged 27.7 disposals, 5.6 marks and 5.4 tackles per game. Rockliff was rewarded by winning the club's best and fairest award over favourite Simon Black, who also had a strong season.

For the 2013 season, Rockliff averaged 27.3 disposals and recording 30 more disposals 9 times. Rockliff also finished equal fifth in the Brownlow Medal count, polling 21 votes. [6]

In 2014, Rockliff established himself as one of the elite midfielders of the competition, averaging a league-high 32.7 disposals and 9.1 tackles a game and recording 40 or more disposals five times. In round 18 in the Q-Clash against Gold Coast, Rockliff gathered a career-high 47 disposals (31 kicks and 16 handballs) as well as 10 tackles. Rockliff was awarded his second Merrett–Murray Medal as Brisbane's best and fairest player.[7] Rockliff was also selected in the 2014 All-Australian Team on the Interchange after his remarkable season that was recognised.[8]

In January 2015, it was announced that Rockliff would become the next captain of the Brisbane Lions, succeeding Jed Adcock.[9] He lasted two years in the role and was succeeded by Dayne Beams in 2017.[10] Following the end of the 2017 season, Rockliff began seeking a contract away from Brisbane.[11]

Port Adelaide (2018–2021)

Rockliff joined Port Adelaide as a restricted free agent during the 2017 trade period after Brisbane elected not to match Port Adelaide's contract offer.[12] He announced his immediate retirement on August 8, 2021, citing injuries.
