Recruited from Echuca, Keith Miller was a mobile ruckman who played a brief cameo at VFL level before carving out a decorated career in the Australian Capital Territory. His time at Kardinia Park was limited to the 1974 season, where he made two senior appearances, debuting as a reserve against Footscray and earning a start against Melbourne in Round 3. Unable to cement a regular spot in the Cats' lineup, Miller eventually moved to Canberra where he became a legendary figure for Eastlake, leading the club to the 1978 premiership as captain-coach. He stamped his authority on the competition by winning two Mulrooney Medals as the league's best and fairest player, establishing a legacy that far exceeded his short tenure in the Victorian major league.
