SENIOR MENS PLAYER'S PLAYER - LINDSAY JACOB MEMORIAL

An award for the best team person as voted by their fellow players.

A bit about Lindsay Jacob:

Tough and speedy rover who was an outstanding mark for his size. Joined Kedron as captain-coach in 1970-74 after playing two games for North Melbourne in 1969. Was appointed full time coach at Kedron in what was a bold move for that era. An experienced journeyman before making his mark on Queensland football, he represented the Hume League (1964-66) and Ovens & Murray League (1967-68) before his shift north.

Spent a year at Ulverstone in Tasmania before returning to captain the Redlegs again in 1976-77. Had another stint at the club in 1980-81 after a short spell at Sherwood. Played 10 games for Queensland and captained the Maroons in 1970 under Dick Verdon. Winner of The Courier-Mail and Leach Motors Media Awards.

RESERVES/DEVELOPMENT - JIM MCHARDY PLAYER'S PLAYER

James (Jimmy) McHardy became involved with Kedron when his son Trevor started playing with Kedron Juniors in 1954.

He was a very strong supporter of the club serving on several committees and was a foundation member of the Kedron Old Boys  Supporters Club. 

He was also the instigator of several fundraising gambling nights at the Club and every Friday you would find him selling raffle tickets at the Edinburgh Castle Hotel, with the proceeds going towards the new club. 

He unfortunately died in 1975, a year before the new club was opened.  He was a life member of the club.
