List Mgmt. Welcome Xavier O'Neill (Pick 28, 2018 National Draft)

[nameless]

Please provide info here...

#5 Xavier O’Neill

The smart midfielder had his moments throughout the afternoon, spending time at the stoppages and finding the ball on the offensive side of the contests. He generally used the ball well, but had times when he could have made better decisions going forward. He did create some fast links though, including a long handball through the corridor in the third quarter and a brilliantly won ground clearance in the final term when Oakleigh were fighting back into contention. He finished with 17 disposals and five tackles in what was a solid outing for the Chargers.

[random260]

Joint first in kickin test.

Yessss. He’s an elite kick. That means he can play half back flank if he doesn’t accumulate in the mid. Like Duggan

I like how we are drafting elite kicks.

 

[Forward Press]

Highlights on the AFL Draft Machine look decent. Reminds me a bit of Zach Merrett.

I would take that, Zach Merrett is a gun.

 

[Corn69]

Just watched his highlights and can say that he is a much better prospect than Valente. Inside/outside mid with a good kick and loves tackling.

This - kicks are faster than anyone can run.

 

[Sw3Et]

Is it Oneil or O'Halloran?

 

[Biggie]

Highlights anyone?

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

Looks real quick , inside and outside game is good , good kick off both feet !

Same size and explosive pace as shuey.

 

[dispute]

Damn impressive highlights.

 

[DickDunn]

Lol @ 1:12 in the highlights vid

That was all Xavier.

 

[Lynch takes a mark]

Looks good, reminds me of Jamie Cripps with the intensity.

 

[Patron]

Don't mind him, but do think we jumped the gun and could have gotten him much later.

 

[Patron]

Is it Oneil or O'Halloran?

Oneil, ohallaran went before our pick.

 

[WCE1698]

Can see why the Eagles liked this fella, doesn't look like he has any weaknesses, quick, agile, good tackler and uses the footy well.

 

[eaglespremiers]

That play in his highlights at 1 minute and 13 seconds is the most hilarious thing I've seen all week.

 

[Off Tap]

Looks a great pick up. Superb kick and handball off both sides.

Two years of development in the system and he'll be a machine.

 

[Balls In]

Some real X factor.

Haha I don't even have to watch to know what play you're talking about.

 

[Keys]

Nice kick off both sides which probably explains our interest in him

Good luck to the lad, hope he does well
