Troy William Selwood (1 May 1984 – 4 February 2025) was an Australian rules footballer who played 75 games for the Brisbane Lions in the Australian Football League (AFL). He was also captain of the Geelong Football Club's team in the Victorian Football League (VFL) from 2011 to 2013.
Selwood was drafted by the Brisbane Lions with the number 19 pick in the 2002 AFL draft from Sandhurst. After not playing in 2003 or 2004, he made his AFL debut for the Lions wearing the number 28 guernsey in Round 1, 2005, against St Kilda. His endurance and accountable style of play saw him mainly utilised in a tagging role on key opposition players.
On 9 May 2009, Selwood was knocked unconscious in a collision with Richmond's Alex Rance.
Selwood was delisted by the Brisbane Lions at the end of the 2010 season.
A member of the Selwood family from Bendigo in central Victoria, Selwood had three brothers: twin brother Adam (who played for West Coast), and younger brothers Joel and Scott (who both played for Geelong).
Selwood had two children. He died by suicide at a property in Highton, Geelong, on 4 February 2025, at the age of 40. A memorial service was held at Kardinia Park in South Geelong. Three months later, Selwood's twin brother, Adam, also died by suicide.
