of the Geelong Football Club team's rise to win the AFL 2022
Premiership. Revealing, insightful and action-packed, this book

award-winning AFL correspondent and Geelong insider Scott Gullan.
After 11 years, a flurry of false starts, and naysayers at every
turn, the Cats' ascension to the top of the ladder and into finals
was no easy task. With the grit, talent and aggression that a true
Grand Final challenger needed, the Cats, led by record-breaking
captain Joel Selwood, would not only need to battle through one of
the most challenging and competitive finals series the game has
seen in a very long time, but also turn the tide of public opinion
that the team was too old and too slow. But with thirteen wins on
the trot as they entered finals, they would emerge as the team to
beat. Relive the lows to highs of this incredible AFL season to
Grand Final victory with The Greatest Team of All,an official AFL
book.
This is the story of Ireland's most successful Australian Rules
footballer. Born in Listowel, County Kerry, Tadhg Kennelly is the
son of a Kerry football star and grew up playing GAA both for local
and county teams. Having played at inter-county level for Kerry
from an early age, in 1999 he made the momentous decision to move
to Australia to play Aussie Rules football. He debuted for the
Sydney Swans in 2001 and went on to become one of their star
players. In 2005 he won an AFL Premiership medal with the Swans,
the first Irishman to do so. He was plagued with injury throughout
his final season in Australia, demonstrating a disconcerting
tendency to pop his often dislocated shoulder back into place on
the pitch during matches, but through both his columns on the
Sydney Swans website and the attention lavished on him by
Australian broadcasters, Tadhg retained a high profile in
Australia. In 2009 he returned to Ireland and joined the Kerry
County panel.
