Tony Armstrong is the sports presenter on ABC TV’s News Breakfast. He joined the ABC in 2020 after an AFL playing career with the Adelaide Crows, Sydney Swans and Collingwood.

Tony grew up in rural NSW and is a proud Barranbinya man. He was drafted straight out of school to the Adelaide Crows, then moved to Sydney where he played alongside Adam Goodes, one of the Aboriginal men who inspired him as a child.

In 2019 Tony became the first Indigenous person to call live-action Aussie Rules football on commercial radio, at Triple M in Melbourne. He also appeared on the Marngrook Footy Show and became a regular panellist on the online panel show the Colour of Your Jumper.
