Keith John Warburton (7 June 1929 – 28 June 2018)[1] was an Australian rules footballer in the Victorian Football League.
Warburton first played senior football for the Brighton Football Club in the Victorian Football Association. He was a member of Brighton's sole premiership team in 1948, and kicked three goals in the Grand Final;[2] and, he was the Association's leading goalkicker in 1949, kicking 101 goals.[3] Altogether, Warburton played 90 games for Brighton, and kicked 317 goals.[4]
Warburton moved to the Carlton Football Club in the Victorian Football League, and made his debut in Round 1 of the 1951 season. He received a heavy knock during a game in 1952 and was rushed to hospital after collapsing at a dance after the game. He was eventually forced to retire in 1955 due to ongoing problems as a result of that knock.
