Mourne County star O’Reilly takes a punt with AFL side Richmond

Down U-21 star Jamie O’Reilly is the latest Irish youngster to be offered a trial at an AFL club, having been flown out by Richmond Tigers last Saturday.

James McCarthy, who played for Dublin U-21s this year, and Cavan minor captain Barry Reilly are trying their hand at Aussie Rules also, as they go on trial with Conor Meredith’s North Melbourne.
