Playing career

Kennedy made his first grade debut for Western Suburbs against the Brisbane Broncos in Round 2 1995. In 1996, Kennedy played 22 times for Wests as the club finished in 8th position on the table and qualified for the finals. Western Suburbs were eliminated in week one of the 1996 finals series losing to Cronulla 20-12 at Parramatta Stadium with Kennedy playing at second-row. This would be the last time Western Suburbs would reach the finals.

In 1998, Kennedy made 22 appearances for the club in his last year there. Western Suburbs finished the 1998 season in last place winning only 4 games for the entire year but were handed the wooden spoon as the Gold Coast Chargers who had also finished bottom avoided last position due to a better for and against.

In 1999, Kennedy joined Canberra and in his first season in the nation's capital the club missed the finals by one competition point. Kennedy only made one appearance the following season and retired at the end of 2000.[2][3][4]

gollark: Okay, probably a bit before then, but it would take a while.

gollark: It would take 432 billion years or so to collect the necessary dragons at that rate.
