Trevor Keogh (born 26 July 1949) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for Carlton in the Victorian Football League.

Keogh was recruited from Sandhurst in the Bendigo Football League and made his debut for Carlton in 1970. A rover, he has been described as "instrumental" in Carlton's premiership wins of 1972 and 1979. He won the club's Best and Fairest award in 1976 and 1978, also representing Victoria in the interstate competition in the same years. He averaged almost a goal a game in his long career, and was a member of Carlton's famous so-called "mosquito fleet" of small players who played a key role in Carlton's two premiership wins from 1972 to 1979.

Keogh retired from senior football in 1981, later coaching the Blues' under-19 team and becoming a runner for the senior team.

Keogh was named on the bench in Carlton's Team of the Century

The AFL Australian Football League is the top professional Australian rules football league in the world. The league consists of eighteen teams: nine based in the city of Melbourne, one from regional Victoria, and eight based in other Australian states. The reason for this unbalanced geographic distribution lies in the history of the league, which was based solely within Victoria from the time it was established in 1897, until the time the league expanded through the addition of clubs from interstate to the existing teams starting in the 1980s; until this expansion, the league was known as the VFL (Victorian Football League).
