Mark John Byrnes (born 8 February 1982) is an Australian footballer who plays for APIA Leichhardt Tigers in the New South Wales Premier League.

Club career

After a short stint with SV Salzburg in Austria, he won two NSL championship medals in a row with Perth Glory.

Due to the demise of the National Soccer League after the 2003/2004 season, in July of that year he signed with Finnish club, FC Hämeenlinna.[1] He returned to Australia to form part of Melbourne Victory's A-League 2005–06 squad,[2] but found his chances limited by the emergence of younger defenders Adrian Leijer and Daniel Piorkowski.[3][4][5] He was part of Melbourne's A-League championship winning side in 2006–2007. However at the end of the season, on 1 March 2007, he was released by the club.[6]

In 2007, he was announced as a short term signing for Victorian Premier League side Richmond Eagles for three matches.[7] In 2008, Byrnes went on trial with English lower league football clubs Port Vale and Luton Town. He impressed during an overseas pre-season tour to the extent that he would have been offered a contract had he not suffered a minor injury during the last tour match.[8][9]

On 23 September 2009 he was signed by Gold Coast United as a four-week injury replacement for Daniel Piorkowski.[10]

International career

He was captain of the Australian Under-17 team which reached the final of the 1999 FIFA U-17 World Championship.
