No, he’s from Coburg.
Probably the only club to have two Indian descended guys listed at the same time (along with Alex Morgan)
Alex Silvagni and Clancee Pearce both play for Freo and have Indian born mothers.

*Allegedly
Or has he been banged up for that one too?
I swear Kerr is Sri Lankan. Can anybody confirm this?
His wikipedia page says “Kerr is of Anglo-Indian descent. His father, Roger Kerr, was born in Calcutta, India, to an English father and an Indian mother.” And there’s a link in his dad’s wikipedia page to an Age article which says
A few people in AFL circles used to think that Daniel was Aboriginal; more recently there have been stories printed that he is of Sri Lankan heritage. In fact he has family links to the British Raj and his grandmother was Indian.

Classic - a la Hunter S Thompson. Was it Johnny Depp that pulled the trigger?
Cheers, that’s fair then. I just remember hearing it from a Footy show which is never the best reference point.

Terrific news. We need to find a few. Hopefully Benny will become a regular.
Good luck to the lad, haven’t seen a lot of him but if he is half as good as the VFL watchers spruik he will be fine
At worst he’s reliable imo.
