Re: Kenny Whiffen
Not good news. Dies anyone know what is wrong? Is Kenny in hospital? If so, we could send him some messages of support.
I started with nothing and I've got most of it left!

Re: Kenny Whiffen
Very sad. Club legend - RIP Kenny. Thanks for being there all these years.
I want to stand for something. I'm a loyal person and I think at the end of my career it will be great to look back and know that I'm a St Kilda person for life.

Re: Kenny Whiffen - RIP Kenny , 10.1.14
I was fortunate to have known Ken for many years. It would be impossible to find a finer clubman and gentleman. If you wish to see the largest gathering of past and present players and officials of the St.Kilda Football Club in its history it will be at his funeral. That's how admired he was. We use our great motto for many reasons but never has a time been so fitting.
Ken Whiffen. Fortius Quo Fidelius
P.S. He had a left rip that brought tears to the toughest of footballers.

How many of us will have the honour of being able to say personal farewells to so many, with apparently a clear mind.
Even as he passes he is an example of dignity
