Roos plays down trip to ‘support’ Kennelly

SYDNEY SWANS head coach Paul Roos has played down the significance of his trip to Ireland this month where he will take in Tadhg Kennelly’s attempt to win an All-Ireland title.

The Listowel player cut short his AFL career late last year to return home in search of a Celtic Cross but speculation has persisted about a possible return to Aussie Rules should he achieve that ambition.

“I want him to focus on the game, make sure he fulfils his dream, that’s all I really want,” Roos said. “I’ll be rapt if they win.”
