ZACH TUOHY WAS hailed by Geelong fans as he scored a goal today in his final home game in the AFL for the club.

Tuohy announced this week that he will retire from the AFL at the end of this season, the Laois native bringing a close to a brilliant career since he first made his debut in 2011 for Carlton.

Making his 287th appearance in the AFL, Tuohy marked it in style against the West Coast Eagles as he kicked the Cats first goal of the third quarter, sparking huge cheers from the home support at the GMHBA Stadium.
