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
