Tadhg Kennelly
The story of Tadhg Kennelly, one of Ireland's most intriguing GAA players. Tadhg's story is unique - he is the only Irishman to win an AFL premiership medal in Australia. Having played at inter-county level for Kerry from an early age, in 1999 he made the momentous decision to move to Australia to play Aussie Rules football at only 18 years of age. He debuted for the Sydney Swans in 2001 and went on to become one of their star players. In 2005 he won an AFL Premiership medal with the Swans, the first Irishman to do so. In 2009 he returned to Ireland and joined the Kerry County panel with a burning ambition to win the Sam Maguire with Kerry, a feat he achieved on 20 September of that year when Kerry defeated Cork 0-16 1-9. This is his autobiography.
