Swans seek to extend Kennelly’s AFL deal

AUSSIE Rules club Sydney Swans have opened negotiations on a new contract for Tadhg Kennelly in a bid to extend the Kerryman’s time Down Under.

Kennelly is currently mulling over his future and getting over an ankle injury which has prevented him from lining out with Ireland in the International Rules series.

He has admitted that it’s coming close to “crunch time”, having recently stated his desire to return full-time to Ireland and to line out with the Kingdom’s senior footballers.
