Sad news re Kenny, for supporters of the other 17 clubs. I honestly think they'd have won a flag at some point over the past 12 seasons with most other coaches. Gee his management team were elite.

There's no link between the two players or families, I have no idea why.

You're right. Should have retired the number out of respect. Something the members should have been asked about I reckon.
