FERMANAGH star Ultan Kelm is off to Australia to take part in trials with AFL club Fremantle Dockers.

It’s not the first venture Down Under for the Erne Gaels man as he came close to joining the Western Australia club in 2021.

That deal fell through due to a hip injury and Kelm has been a key player for Kieran Donnnelly’s county side since, but he made no secret of the fact that he has never closed the door on his ambitions and could soon get his chance to realise those.
