Toby Pink

Toby Pink (born 11 August 1998) is an Australian rules footballer who plays for the North Melbourne Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).

From Tantanoola, South Australia, Pink played his under-18s football for the Glenelg Football Club while boarding at Rostrevor College in Adelaide. While there, he kicked the winning behind in Glenelg's one-point win against North Adelaide in the 2016 under-18s grand final; having marked just before the final siren, Pink took an after the siren 60m set shot into the wind, which fell short but bounced through for a behind, somehow eluding the eleven North Adelaide defenders who were standing in the goal square. In previous years he played for his local community club Tantanoola Tigers and attended Millicent High School.

Pink was drafted by Sydney with the last pick of the 2017 rookie draft. He spent three seasons on the Sydney list, missing most of the 2018 season with a broken ankle, but was ultimately delisted at the end of 2019 without playing a senior game. Pink signed with the North Melbourne reserves in the 2020 season, never playing a game there because the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He then returned to play senior football with Glenelg.

Having played mostly as a forward and ruckman through the early part of his career, Pink switched to the backline at Glenelg, and in 2023 he was named full back in the SANFL Team of the Year – as well as being part of the club's premiership team. This performance saw him return to the AFL, signed by as a delisted free agent in October 2023. He made his senior AFL debut at age 25 in round 2, 2024. He played 15 senior games in 2024, triggering a one-year contract extension.
