To say Alex Keath has had a whirlwind couple of years is an understatement.

By making his AFL debut in Round 18 he completed somewhat of a full sporting circle.

On Wednesday’s Inside the Four Walls on Facebook Live, Keath discussed his journey from cricket to football and what it’s been like to play in some of the Club’s biggest games this season.

He also revealed a current teammate who he thinks could have played cricket at the elite level.

A gifted athlete growing up near Shepparton in country Victorian, Keath excelled at both football and cricket.

He was originally pre-selected by the Gold Coast Suns in 2009 but opted to pursue a cricket career with the Victorian Bushrangers.

In 2010, Keath helped Australia claim the Under 19 Cricket World Cup alongside now household names Josh Hazelwood and Mitchell Marsh.

Fast-forward to August, 2017 and he’s just played his fifth AFL game for the Crows and the humble defender is loving every minute of it.

“It’s obviously been a dream to play AFL in such a great side,” Keath said.

“I was just fortunate enough an opportunity presented on the back of a couple of injuries.”

In his short career so far, he has managed to play in two Friday night blockbusters at Adelaide Oval, a Showdown and at the MCG against one of the biggest clubs in Australian sport - Collingwood.

Last Friday night Keath got to play on arguably the best player in the competition which was a steep learning curve.

“I was a bit disappointed early, Buddy did some special things in the first quarter,” Keath said.

“It was great to get some exposure to a player like that playing as a key defender.

“I want to be able to play on those sorts of players and play well.”

Keath certainly isn’t taking anything for granted and is focused on doing whatever he can to help the team.

“It’s just rolling week-to-week and I’m just trying to play as well as I can and play my role.”

As for the current Crow who he thinks could have played cricket at the elite level, Keath called out midfielder Matt Crouch.

“Matty is a gun,” Keath said.

“He wouldn’t tell you himself but he was a star wicketkeeper and I think he played State League First XI which is just under First Class Cricket when he was 15.

“Obviously he’s a pretty special footballer as well and that took his focus.”
