Stats
Bio
Recruited from Melbourne High School, Keith Molloy emerged during the war years as a promising centreman for the Demons in 1943. His early momentum was halted by a severe knee injury that required surgery, forcing him to miss the entire 1944 season. He returned to the lineup in 1945 reinvented as a centre half-back, holding down a key defensive post before crossing to Hawthorn the following year. Molloy's stint at Glenferrie Oval was sporadic, managing just 12 games over four seasons as he battled to cement a senior spot, eventually departing to finish his career with Brighton in the VFA.
