Colin O'Riordan close to rejoining Tipperary footballers according to reports

Colin O’Riordan is weighing up the possibility of rejoining the Tipperary senior footballers after recently training with the panel, according to reports in the Irish Examiner today.

Killea man O’Riordan, who brought down the curtain on his seven-year Australian Rules career due to a chronic hip injury, linked up with David Power’s group this past weekend for some light training.

The 27-year-old has not yet decided if he will go back to Australia and having returned home recently for an extended Christmas break, he has togged out with his old team-mates.

David Power's Tipperary management are hopeful O’Riordan will choose to stay but do not expect a firm answer from the player until next month.
