Tyrone minor set for Sydney switch

Tyrone minor footballer Kyle Coney has signed a two-year rookie contract with Australian Rules club Sydney Swans, where he will link up with fellow Irishmen Tadhg Kennelly and Brendan Murphy.

Midfielder Coney, who hails from Ardboe, is hoping to help Tyrone to All-Ireland minor success - they face Roscommon in an upcoming quarter-final - before he joins the Swans.
