Ralphsmith had 18 disposals and kicked three goals on his AFL debut in 1988, but didn't make another appearance until 1990. 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.
As a defender at St Kilda, Ralphsmith finally played some regular senior football, playing 13 games in 1991. He made a further nine appearances in 1992, including two finals, at an average of over 19 disposals a game. He performed extremely well in St Kilda's elimination final win over Collingwood.
