Wanted Kennelers with Long Memories

[Ant2611]

Great story TT. My Dad always said Kevin Ryan was one of the toughest players he had ever seen including when he was at the Dragons. Kevin Ryan was one of the foundations of the greatest era of the Club's history from 70's, 80's, 90's and early 2000's. Those days are becoming a distant memory and don't see signs of them re- emerging. Again thanks TT for the story.

Kevin Ryan's nick name was Kandos. Well before cement .

I was at the game at belmore oval when ken Irvine took north Sydney off the field. Don’t remember Kevin Ryan taking Canterbury off the field. Referreemight of been Laurie bruyeers.

Separate occurrences, same ref, the Bears walk off was a couple of years later though. Hence why I think 1967/68 and KR had a running dispute with Page up close to half time. Vague memory, it may have been that the KR refused to bring the team back out after oranges.

Always a Bulldog

This what I am talking about... The Bears and the Bulldogs have great history together and it should continue.

They are fucked as a footy club these days but have a perfectly good home ground not being properly utilised. Let’s build our new home ground at North Sydney Oval to honour this great history.

BBQ, at my place for all Kenellers as soon as it’s announced. Everyone is to bring a slab of thier favouite and wear a name tag, except @Tassie Devil..(Please wear a fluorescent yellow shirt and beanie, so the AFP know its you...)

We played our first game against them 25/4/1935. We should also play ANZAC day every year for that reason.
