As a player, Kanis played over 300 senior games with Old Caulfield and Uni Blues (as captain from 1989-92) as well as representing the VAFA on numerous occasions.
Guengerich led the Blues Reserves to Premiership success in 2008, also in his first year as a coach. He has been promoted to Senior Assistant Coach for the 2009 season as well as retaining his post as Reserves Coach. Guengerich had  a successful playing career with Preston in the VFA, winning multiple Premierships with his hometown club of Heyfield in the VCFL as well as being a member of the Blues 2004 A-Section Premiership team.
