    Meath defender Kevin Reilly has revealed he was approached by an AFL club following his role in Ireland’s International Rules victories over Australia last month.

    The Navan O’Mahony’s clubman refused to divulge the name of the club, but admitted that a desire to complete his third-level studies swayed his decision to stay at home.
