Zach Tuohy’s dream was to play Gaelic football and win an All-Ireland with his county. But when, at just nineteen, he was offered a professional contract to play football on the other side of the world, he seized the opportunity with both hands. Now, as one of the most accomplished Irish players in AFL history, Zach reflects on his journey in The Irish Experiment – From the GAA to the AFL. Co-written with sports journalist Catherine Murphy, this humorous and candid memoir captures the essence of his remarkable experiences and the cultural crossover of two great sports, while highlighting his role as a trailblazer for Irish athletes in the AFL.
