Kennelly says drug scandal may hit AFL’s Irish trawl

Tadhg Kennelly has admitted the Australian drugs scandal rocking the country could affect the AFL’s recruitment of Irish players.

The Kerryman and former Sydney Swans player is in Dublin this week heading up a two-day trial of rising GAA stars for potential Aussie Rules duty.

The testing session is being conducted at Dublin City University by AFL Europe on behalf of the Australian Football League.
