      As soon as he became eligible.
      Congratulations Kell, elevation to legend status shouldn't be too far behind.

      The second greatest Swan of all time.

          Almost. He was eligible last year - he retired the same year as Plugger, who was inducted last year. But it is very very few players who get in as soon as they are eligible so a one year wait shows the regard he is held in. Roos had to wait at least one year (might have been two).

                  bless.
                  my favourite swannie.
                  i'm going to cry.
                  Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
                  Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

                      Congratulations Paul Kelly, well deserved honour.

                      Does this now mean we can "un-retire" number 14?

                              That's a sensational result. Looking back, it was a magnificent treat to watch the Champ's career.

                              Are there any pics of the Hall of Fame function floating around?

                                                      Superb.

                                                      Due recognition for the great PK

                                                      Inducted along with two other Swans greats in Johnson and Smith. (surely we can claim them as ours?)

                                                          The true "Captain Courageous" Paul Kelly the first Sydney born to make the Hall of Fame.Wasn't he a gun.We haven't had another midfielder since anywhere near the class of Kel but he was one in a million.Apparantly he is happy on the farm at Wagga with the wife and five kids.
