Bradley Meyers (born 5 January 1980) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer of the 2000s, and 2010s. A Queensland State of Origin and Australia national representative forward, he played his club football in the National Rugby League for the Brisbane Broncos and Gold Coast Titans, and in Super League for the Bradford Bulls, with whom he won 2005's Super League X Championship.
Meyers attended school at Villanova College where he initially played rugby union. While attending Villanova College, Meyers played for the Australian Schoolboys team in 1997. While with the Brisbane Broncos, he also played for the Past Brothers in the Queensland Cup.
Having won the 2000 NRL Premiership, the Brisbane Broncos traveled to England to play against 2000's Super League V Champions, St Helens R.F.C. for the 2001 World Club Challenge, with Meyers playing from the interchange bench and scoring a try in Brisbane's loss. He made his debut for the Broncos in the Australian National Rugby League competition and later was picked for the State of Origin series in Australia where he represented the Queensland Maroons in their triumph over their fierce rivals the New South Wales Blues.
