Zach Tuohy has indicated that he will prolong his career in the AFL for at least one more season by signing a contract extension with Geelong to play in 2023.

And he is willing to contact Conor McKenna to try to persuade the former Tyrone All-Ireland winner to join him and Mark O'Connor in an all-Irish half-back line, after the 26-year-old announced his decision to return to the AFL having played 79 times for Essendon.
