IRISH recruit Daniel Flynn has walked out on Port Adelaide to stay at home and potentially resurrect his Gaelic football career.
Flynn, who joined the Power as an international rookie at the end of 2013, had returned to Ireland at the end of last year and was given extended leave as he dealt with homesickness.
The 21-year-old has since told the club he will not be part of the 2015 season.
"We’re obviously disappointed that Daniel won’t be returning to the club but we understand his reasons," Power football manager Chris Davies said.
"Daniel has battled with homesickness while he’s been at Alberton including taking extended leave for eight weeks last March.
"Daniel has been well-liked team member and we all wish him the best for the future."
Flynn represented Kildare in Ireland and he is being touted for a return to Gaelic football in his homeland after training with his former club.
He played 15 games for Port Adelaide in the SANFL last year, including the Grand Final loss to Norwood.
He was the first Irishman recruited directly through Tadgh Kennelly's annual European combine.
