Roff attended The Armidale School and his father is principal of St John’s College, Woodlawn on the Far North Coast of NSW.

Roff was a leading try scorer for Australia and scored the intercept try in the second British Lion’s Test in 2001, which allowed Australia to win the game and subsequently go on to win the series.

He also features in Australia’s leading rugby players top 10 lists: fifth in leading test caps; sixth on the leading test scorer ladder and third on the leading Australian test try ladder.

Mid-way through 2004 he announced his retirement at the end of the 2004 Wallabies test series and followed through to go to University in England.

Roff matriculated at the University of Oxford, in October 2006, and is currently reading a degree in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at Harris Manchester College.

He also made a return to amateur rugby by playing for the Oxford University in their traditional fixture against Cambridge at Twickenham Stadium. In 2007 he captained the Blues before hanging up his boots for the last time.

In January 2007, he won the “United Kingdom-based Young Australian of the Year” for his services to Australian Rugby in general.
