They are the names that helped shape the history of Australian Rules football: Whitten, Kennedy, Silvagni and Hudson. But these stars also bring another dimension; or more simply, another generation. In the business world, it is Jamie Packer taking over the PBL empire from Kerry, and Lachlan Murdoch succeeding his father. In football, it is Gary Ablett Jr running, kicking and handballing on the same Skilled Stadium turf his famous father did; and Jobe Watson entering the Essendon change room via Napier Street, as Dad, Tim, had done a decade earlier. This is a book about footballers, but it is not a football book in the strictest sense. 'Like Father Like Son' tells the stories of personal sacrifice, parental dedication, family pride and hero worship.
