Port Adelaide career

He made his AFL debut in Round 16 of the 2009 AFL season against the West Coast Eagles at AAMI Stadium in July 2009.
2010

Broadbent played eleven games in his second season at the club and found his place as a midfield utility in combination with an occasional running defender role. He demonstrated an aptitude to win inside ball and effect contests around the ground as he pushed his way into the side after playing the majority of the first thirteen rounds with his aligned SANFL side Woodville West Torrens. Finishing the season off with nine consecutive games, Broadbent’s performance was enough to show promise as a potential future midfielder
2011

Broadbent played in a career high 19 game during 2011 where his offensive, attacking game flourished in a utility role. Through those 19 games he showed promise as a quality player of the future but struggled to consistently find the uncontested football.
2012

In 2012 Broadbent’s break out 2012 was unlined by a series of strong performances in the midfield, starting against Fremantle in Round 8 and running through to the mid-season bye. His highlight was setting up the match winning goals against North Melbourne in Round 8, whilst he polled three Brownlow Medal votes for his game against the Gold Coast in Round 9. He finished equal second in the club’s John Cahill Medal count.
