Emotional scenes were captured as Shane’s family and friends watched a procession at St Kilda Football ground in Melbourne on Sunday. His son, Jackson, was seen affectionately kissing the coffin of his late father as the procession ended.

Warne’s coffin was draped in a St Kilda Saints scarf, while Jackson, Shane’s brother Jason and others carried the star’s coffin during Sunday’s service.

Former cricketers, those who played alongside Warne as well as those who played against him were present at the funeral.
