Do you think Mitch O'Neill gets another chance at AFL, an excellent junior career until his untimely serious ankle injury. Seems to have his ankle issues under control now and it's only been minor soft tissue niggles that have seen him miss this year. Quite impressive yesterday and seems to have improved his inside work markedly since his draft year.
I'll preface this by saying I haven't really tracked him closely enough this year to make a call with any confidence so take my thoughts with a grain of salt. He's had two really good finals and I would've had him in my best 3 or 4 for the Panthers yesterday. He does a lot right and I think you're spot on that there's been growth and a maturity to his inside craft. I still think he probably lacks those clear AFL standard traits so my guess would be that he's probably a fairly outside chance of getting another shot at the level.
