Brisbane Roar have signed CommBank Junior Matildas midfielder and two-time Ninja A-League Premiership-winner Kiera Meyers from Melbourne City for the 2025-26 season.
The 18-year-old arrives in Brisbane after sealing back-to-back Premiership titles at City, where she’s spent the past two seasons on a scholarship deal.
The Minnesota-born midfielder moved to Melbourne in 2021 before joining the Emerging Matildas where she was discovered by City and handed an opportunity as a train-on player that ultimately led to her receiving a scholarship contract.
Meyers made 14 appearances for City across both the Ninja A-League and AFC Women’s Champions League but is excited to be joining the Roar where she believes a focus on youth development will be of tremendous benefit to her progression as a senior footballer.
“I am so excited to be joining Brisbane Roar,” Meyers said.

“I have seen her progress and mature through the national teams and can’t wait to work with her again.”
