Roy "Tiger" Bence (1 April 1900 – 3 October 1979)[1] was an Australian rules footballer who played with South Melbourne and St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Originally from Koroit, Bence was a rover and occasional forward pocket.[1][2] He started his league career at South Melbourne but after only one season left for Brighton.[3] His second attempt at establishing himself in the VFL was more successful. He played nine seasons for St Kilda, before retiring at the age of 33.[4]
