The Carlton Football Club has lifted the suspension on Setanta O’hAilpin and he returned to training at Visy Park earlier today. “Setanta was invited to return to the club and resume training with his team-mates following further discussions with the coaching staff and the playing group and a clearance from our Sports Psychologist,” said Carlton CEO Greg Swann. O’hAilpin addressed the playing group prior to the training session at Visy Park this afternoon and he was welcomed back by everyone at the club. He will continue to undertake ongoing counseling from the Club’s Psychologist.
“There has been much said about what was an unacceptable incident and the matter has been dealt with by the AFL in regards to a suspension from playing,,” added Swann. O’hAilpin has been training with the Northern Bullants while he has been suspended from Carlton. Carlton’s next training session will be at Visy Park at 9:30am on Thursday.
