Fallen West Coast Eagles premiership player Daniel Kerr has narrowly avoided jail despite being convicted of domestic violence offences against his ex-partner over several years. The ex-AFL player was handed a suspended jail term of four years and six months with strict conditions for the physical, verbal, coercive and financial abuse against a former partner between 2013 and 2019.

Former AFL star avoids jail time over family violence crimes. The Perth court heard on Friday that on one occasion, Kerr punched the woman while holding car keys and then licked the blood off them. In other incidents during the relationship, which was “marred by drug and alcohol use”, he used a chainsaw to cut her bed in half and choked her while she was holding their five-month-old child.
