Keith John Rosewarne (18 July 1924 – 23 May 2008) was an Australian rules footballer in the VFL.
Family
The son of Raymond Edgar Rosewarne (1898–1984), and Ruby Beatrice Pearl Rosewarne (1900–1930), née Buckland,[1][2] Keith John Rosewarne was born at Windsor, Victoria on 18 July 1924.[3]
He married Mary Lorna Casey on 19 March 1949.[4]
Education
He was educated at Elwood Central School; and while there, was selected to represent Victoria in the 1938 Australian (Under 15) Schoolboys' Football Carnival, along with a number of other future VFL footballers, including Les Foote and Len McCankie.[5][6]
Football
St Kilda (VFL)
A local recruit, having played with the St Kilda Thirds before his military service, Rosewarne made his senior debut in 1946, winning the best and fairest award in his first season.[7] He played as a rover and was a regular goalscorer, often kicking multiple goals in a match.[8]
In 92 games with the club, he scored 150 goals for an otherwise unsuccessful team.
Victoria (VFL)
Rosewarne represented Victoria at the 1947 Hobart Carnival versus South Australia,[9] and Queensland.[10]
Ballarat North
His retirement from the VFL came in 1951 at the age of 27, and in early 1952 he was cleared to Ballarat North club.[11]

Rosewarne served during World War II in the Australian Army.[12]
