Walsh to return in McGrath Cup

Former All-Ireland-winning Kerry footballer Tommy Walsh makes his return to county football next month.

Walsh, who spent five years in Australia pursing an AFL career, will play in the Kingdom’s McGrath Cup game against IT Tralee on the second weekend of January.

Walsh played 15 times in league and championship for Kerry between 2007 and 2009, scoring 4-23 before inking a deal with St Kilda’s in 2009. Two years later, he transferred to Sydney Swans, where injury blighted his progress.
