The former Cork footballer played the full match as Carlton beat the Gold Coast by 39 points.

Sheehan had an assured debut, setting up one goal and grabbing a dozen possessions, and enjoyed it all with the traditional Gatorade shower from his team-mates after the game.

Best of all for the 23-year-old, his mam Liz flew out to watch the game especially.
