Ex-AFL player Daniel Kerr due back in court over AVO

AFL premiership player Daniel Kerr is scheduled to appear in court after he allegedly breached a violence restraining order by texting his ex-partner.

Kerr avoided an immediate jail term last month for dousing two people in petrol and threatening to set them on fire at a Glendalough home in November.

The former midfielder was instead sentenced to an eight-month jail term, suspended for 12 months, as well as a 12-month community-based order.

Kerr is due to face the Perth Magistrates Court on Wednesday on four counts of breaching a violence restraining order.
