Bio
Recruited from VFA club Preston, Shane Kerrison established himself as a cult hero at Victoria Park through grit and defensive discipline rather than silky skills. Making his debut in 1986, he evolved into one of the league's most effective taggers, renowned for his ability to nullify damaging opposition midfielders. While his unconventional kicking style often drew attention, his commitment to the contest and selfless role-playing made him an automatic selection for multiple coaches during his tenure.
The defining moment of his career came during the 1990 finals series, where his shutdown role on Hawthorn star John Platten in the Grand Final was pivotal in ending Collingwood's 32-year premiership drought. A one-club player who maximized his natural ability through hard work, Kerrison played 141 games over ten seasons, retiring in 1995 as a premiership player and life member of the Magpies.
