Adam Oxley (born 1 November 1992) is a professional Australian rules footballer playing for the Collingwood Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL). He was born in Canberra and only learned about Australian rules football when he moved with his family to Queensland at the age of seven.[1] He was recruited from the Redland Australian Football Club in the North East Australian Football League (NEAFL) with the 35th selection in the 2013 rookie draft. He represented Queensland at the 2011 and 2012 AFL Under 18 Championships.[2]

At the end of the 2013 season, Oxley was promoted to the Collingwood senior list.[3]

In his fourth AFL appearance, against Adelaide in round 2 of the 2015 season, Oxley gathered a career high 33 disposals.[4]

He was delisted by Collingwood at the conclusion of the 2017 season, with the club stating they may re-draft him in the 2018 rookie draft.[5] On 27 November 2017, Oxley was re-drafted by Collingwood in the rookie draft.[6]
