Tipperary’s Orla O’Dwyer is looking forward to her move to Australia having become the latest Irish player to sign a deal in the women’s Australian Football League.

The Premier dual-star has signed for AFLW side Brisbane Lions.

She due to head down under in October for pre-season – with the league beginning after Christmas and running to March.


She’ll be a blow to the County’s camogie and football teams for the league, as she’s ranked as one of the best players in the country, across club, county and third level disciplines.

However, she’ll be back for the Championship season next summer.

Orla explains why she chose to go now…
