Kevin Carl Harmey (1928-2010) was an Australian rugby league footballer who played in the 1940s and 1950s.

Harmey was a star sprinter at the St. George Athletic Club [2] before signing with the St. George club in 1947.

He attained first grade selection in his debut year and is remembered as a flying right-winger and scored many tries over his career at the Saints. He is not to be confused with a Balmain centre with the same name that played between 1949 and 1952. Harmey was a reserve for the 1949 Grand Final but did not feature in the premiership winning team. Harmey retired after the 1951 season after spending the year in St. George's reserve grade. [3]

Harmey died on 13 December 2010, age 82 [4]
