Bio
Recruited from Castlemaine with pick 27 in the 1988 National Draft, Rod Keogh was a prolific ball-winner who initially struggled to translate his dominance at the lower levels into a regular senior berth. The nephew of Carlton stalwart Trevor Keogh, he spent his early years at Melbourne accumulating possessions in the seconds, winning two Gardiner Medals as the reserves competition's best and fairest player (1990 and 1993) but managing just 22 senior games in five seasons. Thrown a lifeline by St Kilda in the 1994 Pre-Season Draft, the midfielder-forward finally cemented his spot at the top level, becoming a consistent link-up player who could drift forward and hit the scoreboard. He became a fixture in the Saints' line-up during their surge under Stan Alves, playing in the 1997 Grand Final side before a knee injury forced his premature retirement at the end of 1998.
