Lew Roberts was an Australian rules footballer who played for the Port Adelaide Football Club in the South Australian National Football League (SANFL). He captained the club during the SANFL's war time competition from 1942–1944. After the war Roberts won the clubs' best and fairest in 1946. In 1948 he took the captaincy of the club along with coaching responsibilities in what was his last year playing for the club. Roberts' ability to kick the ball accurately to advantageous positions for his team mates was a notable part of his game.[4]
