The Sydney Swans are in mourning following the death of club legend Kenny Williams.

A former jockey, Williams, 93, was affectionately known as the team's 'hydration specialist' and was a revered figure at the Bloods.

The Swans tragic was a regular in the home dressing sheds at the Sydney Cricket Ground and was also in the stands at the MCG as a four-year-old when Sydney - known back then as South Melbourne - won their third VFL/AFL flag in 1933.

In 2005, he again made his way to Melbourne when the Swans ended a 72-year premiership drought by beating West Coast.

Williams first became a fixture when Ron Barassi was head coach - and then Rodney Eade encouraged the man with an infectious personality to lead the club song.
