Bio
Recruited from St Mary’s in Greensborough, Terry Keays arrived at Collingwood as a teenage prodigy, making his senior debut at just 16 years of age—the youngest Magpie to do so since the early 1970s. A powerfully built utility who could operate as a forward or on the wing, he captained Victoria in the Teal Cup but struggled to cement a permanent spot in a powerful Collingwood lineup. Despite playing six games during the club’s drought-breaking 1990 season, he missed out on the premiership side and was subsequently traded to Richmond in exchange for the fourth overall draft pick. Keays showed flashes of brilliance at Punt Road, including a seven-goal haul against Footscray in 1991, but fell out of favour under incoming coach Allan Jeans the following year and saw his top-level career end at just 22. He is the grandson of dual-club player Fred Keays and the uncle of current Adelaide Crows star Ben Keays.
