Stalwart Adam Kennedy put four seasons of injury and form problems behind him as he reemerged as a versatile mainstay in Leon Cameron's senior squad. He was diagnosed with an elevated heart rate mid-year, although he managed to get it under control to deliver his most consistent season to date. As a speedy defender who can push up into the midfield, Adam Kennedy's CV is all too similar to the emerging Harry Perryman. For now, role players like Kennedy hold their spots in the 22, but this could change come round 1. Having only surpassed the 70 average in one season, it's not worth keeping him on the watchlist anyway.
Do GWS need to use their AK?

Didn't even have to use my AK
Following 435 days on the sidelines with an ACL injury suffered the previous season, Adam Kennedy made the most of his opportunities upon return. Featuring as a small defender with the odd stint further afield, the inaugural Giant recorded personal bests in disposals, marks and goals per game. He performed exceptionally in the round 20 match against the Blues, recording 26 touches, nine marks and a major. With the return of Zac Williams, Kennedy will be forced to battle for a position in the back six once more. Totalling just seven games in three of the past four seasons, the defender has been limited to a bit part role due to both injury and form. In a backline full of attacking talent, it appears unlikely that Kennedy will become a prime candidate for improved production. He is not worth your time for fantasy.
