Roy Edward Kimberley Bent (1900 – 7 October 1975) was an Australian rules footballer who played with the Norwood Football Club in the South Australian Football Association. He was the competition's leading goal kicker on four occasions 1921, 1924, 1925 and 1926. Late in the 1923 minor round Roy Bent was suspended for six matches for throwing the ball at a boundary umpire and 'bruising his chest'. Later in the year he was jokingly awarded a leather medal in remembrance of his suspension. He was killed in a car accident in 1975.
