Arriving at Princes Park with significant fanfare, Keith Dunn was a high-profile recruit who crossed the border from South Australia as the reigning Magarey Medallist. A standout performer for Sturt in the SANFL, he was a mobile ruckman who used his 184cm frame to compete in the air and drift forward, managing a healthy return of 33 goals from his 38 appearances. While his four-season stint in Victoria did not reach the same heights as his decorated career in Adelaide, he served as a reliable structural option for the Blues during the mid-1930s before retiring and eventually serving in World War II.
