Rugby league career

A forward, Keating played two seasons of first-grade with Brisbane. His coach Wayne Bennett described him as having good mobility and being a good defensive player.[2]

Keating debuted in the 1992 NSWRL season as an injury replacement for Gavin Allen in Brisbane's round eight fixture against St. George and played well in a two-point win, keeping his spot in the team for the next three rounds.[3] He played as a prop and second rower.

In the 1993 NSWRL season he made one further appearance for Brisbane, when he was picked on the bench against the Illawarra Steelers in round eight.[4] The Broncos were premiers in both of his first-grade seasons.

From 1995 to 1996 he played for the London Broncos, which had been taken over by Brisbane.[5]
