Kennelly in it for the long haul

Tadhg Kennelly plans to put down permanent roots in Australia after his decision to move back to the Sydney Swans

Tadhg Kennelly plans to put down permanent roots in Australia after his decision to move back to the Sydney Swans. Kennelly, who fulfilled his dream of winning an All-Ireland with Kerry during the summer, is back in training with the AFL club.

The 28-year-old flew into Sydney on Tuesday night and completed his first training session earlier today.
