Kayne Pettifer (born January 22, 1982) is an Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League.

In the 2000 National AFL Draft Kayne Pettifer was selected by the Richmond Football Club at number 9 overall, which was unexpected for such a short forward. For the next four years Kayne Pettifer had sporadic form rarely playing more than nine games a year. In 2005, however, Kayne Pettifer played a very different role. He lined up to play in all 22 games and was the Tigers third highest goal kicker (31). He also led the side for inside 50's cementing himself into Richmond's top 22.

In 2006, he established himself as a high flyer, capable of taking a spectacular mark, with an unprecedented three consecutive winning nominationss for the Mark of the Year. He finished top 5 in Richmond's Best and Fairest in 2006 and has continued his form into 2007.
