Tuohy joins Ó hAilpín in Carlton starting line-up

Laois native Zach Tuohy has been selected to make his AFL debut for the Carlton Blues against Port Adelaide on Sunday, joining Cork's Setanta Ó hAilpín in the team.

It is the first time a club has fielded two Irish players in an AFL match since former Kerry minor Sean Wight, the first recruit of the so-called 'Irish Experiment', and legendary Brownlow Medal winner Jim Stynes played for Melbourne in 1995.
