His last day at the club is today.
”It’s a unique opportunity that has presented itself and one that I’m keen to explore,” said Kerr.
“I have enjoyed my time at the Lions greatly and I thank the club for their understanding given the timing.
“I believe that the club is very much on the right path and the Football Department has a plan in place to develop a competitive playing list.”
Lions General Manager – Football Operations, Dean Warren, said:
“We acknowledge the strong service Rob has given us, and that this is a great opportunity for him to step into.
“We wish Rob all the best and we will now begin the process of finding a replacement.”
