Sean Ralphsmith (born 14 December 1966) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Hawthorn and St Kilda in the Victorian/Australian Football League (VFL/AFL).
Ralphsmith had 18 disposals and kicked three goals on his AFL debut in 1988, but didn't make another appearance until 1990.[1] A Haileybury College recruit, he was one of two Hawthorn players traded to St Kilda in the 1991 pre-season, with the other being traded with Russell Morris.
