Dyas agrees to join Collingwood
Kevin Dyas has accepted a contract to join Collingwood
Armagh's young star Kevin Dyas has signed a two-year rookie contract with Australian Rules side Collingwood.
The teenager from Dromintee will link up with former Down starlet Martin Clarke who has made such a brilliant start to his career Down Under.
Dyas switches codes after a successful four-week trial last month and took little time in deciding to accept a contract with the Melbourne-based club.
The 19-year-old Dromintee player was impressed by the Collingwood set-up.
"They are a very professional, a team that takes the game seriously, with a very professional game plan.
606: DEBATE
Can Dyas make the grade?
"I would be going out to give it my best shot, there would be no point wasting my time."
Clarke, who moved to Collingwood last year, has been a revelation since he was elevated into Magpies senior squad. "He has been very impressive, and is playing really well," said Dyas. "He was one of the best players when I was there."
