Seriously, Kenners is great with kids. I was able to attend a closed training session for sponsors and at the conclusion Adam came over, introduced himself and asked my then 6 year old who his favourite Giant was - because he'd introduce him.
Generally, I think most of our guys do a good job of engaging with the kids. But I agree particularly on Kenners - on Tuesday, he was one of the last three (with Dylan & Cogs) to leave the kids signing session.

I'd add Jezza to that lot. The first club night I attended I was really impressed with how he played kick to kick with a group of kids after the rest of the team had left the field.

Scans have confirmed Greater Western Sydney defender Adam Kennedy tore his ACL during their shock 23-point loss to St Kilda at Etihad Stadium.

Kennedy landed awkwardly during a marking contest, in an eerily similar fashion to Western Bulldogs captain Bob Murphy against Hawthorn last season, midway through the first quarter of Friday night's game and went straight to the Giants' rooms in obvious distress.
