Josh Kennedy

Josh Kennedy (born 25 August 1987) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for the West Coast Eagles in the Australian Football League and is regarded as one of the best key forwards of his generation. Born in Melbourne and raised mainly in Northampton, Western Australia, he played for East Fremantle in the West Australian Football League and was taken by Carlton with the fourth pick in the 2005 national draft. He was traded to West Coast in 2007 in the deal that brought Chris Judd to Carlton. He won consecutive Coleman Medals as the league's leading goalkicker in 2015 and 2016, was named in the All-Australian team in 2015, 2016 and 2017, kicked three goals in West Coast's 2018 premiership win, and in 2022 became the first Eagles player to kick 700 goals before retiring that year.
