Kennelly pleads for the future of Rules Series

AFL players will be just as regretful as their GAA counterparts if the International Rules Series is abandoned, according to Tadhg Kennelly.

The Listowel native, who will miss out on the opportunity of captaining the Irish team if there is no tour next year, believes the GAA should canvass players before deciding on the future of the concept.

Kennelly, who won an AFL Premiership with Sydney Swans last year, feels authorities should consider having four referees — two operating in each half of the field — in order to end the ill discipline which dominated the second test.
