AFL champion Tuohy signs contract extension with Geelong Cats
ZACH TUOHY HAS signed a new one-year contract extension with AFL champions Geelong Cats.
Portlaoise native Tuohy helped Geelong win the Grand Final last month by 133-52 margin at the MCG.
He has now committed to another year at the Cats, his 13th overall in the AFL, after playing his 250th game in that Grand Final.
That milestone appearance places him within just 14 games of the legendary Jim Stynes for the most games by an Irish player in the AFL.
