Kim Rennie (born 19 October 1994) is an Australian rules footballer who plays for North Melbourne in the AFL Women's (AFLW). She has previously played for the Western Bulldogs, having been signed as a rookie in 2017, after having converted to the sport from a previous background in basketball.[1] She was upgraded to the Bulldogs' main playing list following an injury to captain Katie Brennan and subsequently made her debut in the 73-point win over Carlton at VU Whitten Oval in round 4 of the 2018 season.[2][3] She requested a trade to North Melbourne in May 2021,[4] but North Melbourne and the Western Bulldogs were unable to reach an agreement, leaving her at the Bulldogs at the conclusion of the trade period.[5] A few weeks later it was announced that Rennie declined the Western Bulldogs' contract offer and was delisted by the club.[6] In the 2021 AFL Women's draft, Rennie joined North Melbourne, who used the 28th pick for her.[7][8]
