List Mgmt. Welcome to West Coast: Mitch (Star Wars) O'Neill

[jesterwester]

If O’Neill wants to go home in the 4-5 years that it will take for Tassie to get a side, I think that this pick will have turned out just fine. For all the rookies that do make it, there’s a stackload more that don’t last more than a couple of years.

He had a great underage year and was well in line to being first rounder at the start of the year. But didn’t have the greatest year this year, got injured, fell down the pack.

He will need to improve on his inside game to make it at the next level, imo but he’s got a fairly decent mentor in gaff to follow around. Maybe also follow Kelly/Shuey around for scoreboard impact.

I can’t work out if the guy that kicks the goal at 1:50 is the same Mitchell O’Neill- but if so he’s got a nice sidestep.

Bulltish.

Empire strikes back was the pinnacle.

Then we had the f***** ewoks, only to be lead to the biggest shite of all time, jar jar binks. At this point it had jumped the shark

Yeah this.
Return does not stand up well to re-watch. Large parts of it are just a bit lame.
On that note - people talk about how good Revenge of the Sith was but it's a spectacularly lame film as well. It just happens to be marginally better than the other prequels.
I'd count Empire, A New Hope and (controversially) Rogue One as the best films in that order.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Ok so just smashed Mandalorian... very good.

Ep 4 was fairly bleh with the "save the villagers from thugs" storyline and cheesy romantic add on, reminded me of a Xena Warrior Princess episode...

But overall it's better than any of the new star wars films bar Rogue One.

Makes a refreshing change watching the main character struggle and grind his way through everything, rather than just showing up and be unbeatable like OP Rey.

 

[LittleGreekGod]

Looks like you might have been wrong about Huron ..........can't find him on the current player list. Must have gone back home.

Won’t be missed

How's the BANGA tho?

 

[Abed]

Does anyone know if O'Neill is a Star Wars fan? What are his thoughts on Ewoks vs Jar Jar Binks? What does he think is the best of the recent Star Wars films? Has he watched The Mandolorian yet?

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

Mates take this chat to the O'Neill 1 Kenobi thread thanks.

 

[DanWCE]

Absolute trash and you all know it.

Rogue One is bloody excellent.

Have you seen any of Final Space on Netflix https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6317068/
Just started it last night. It's about "An astronaut named Gary and his planet-destroying sidekick called Mooncake"
Pretty light easy viewing with some tongue in cheek humour. Gary is a legend.

Or caught staring longingly at maps of tassie

Girls these days would at most have the road from Launceston to Hobart

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

Ok so don't come at me.

I just watched some highlights of the your Mitch O'Neill and my first thought was that he has a bit of Benny Cousins about him.
His swervability through traffic and hand passes where quiet the sight to behold.

Anyone else see some traits of Ben? I think we could have a snagged a bloody ripper here.

Sorry mate dont see it . First thing i thought was matt de boar

 

[liam123]

I see a rich mans ginners tbh

 

[Spange]

Sorry mate dont see it . First thing i thought was matt de boar

This is a better highlight package. Swervability demonstrated at 31 second mark

Looks a bit better than DeBoar

 

[Chris_6678]

look the way i see it, is Mitch and Luke Skywalker both have something in common: Both grew up in a backwater planet ( State in Mitch's). Luke went on to defeat the Empire so really i can see Mitch doing similar.

Bodes well if you ask me.

 

[The wily weagle]

This kid can play, but he's got flight risk written all over him

If he makes something of himself over in the West, expect him to bail back to Melbourne to be closer to home at first opportunity

This is precisely why West Coast were right just to rookie list him, as opposed to using a draft pick

 

[Matera92]

We should start preparing now for the compromised draft the new Tasmanian team will cause, with their excessive high draft picks they will take the competition by storm.

 

[Obeanie1]

Too late, obeanie got me on my previous quote.

Sorry obeanie, just a bit of a laugh during the off-season mate. Gotta do something to pass the time.

At my expense I've noted.

And school holidays hasn't started yet. It's going to be he'll on here until Episode IX comes out on the 19th.

You smashed a Mandalorian?

Did you use protection?

How was your performance?

If you need a bag of dicks to spice things up I can send one to you.

Temper your expectations about Episode IX, mate.

 

[Obeanie1]

Girls these days would at most have the road from Launceston to Hobart

Or a lightly covered track to hidden valley.

 

[Obeanie1]

Temper your expectations about Episode IX, mate.

Ever since episode I I've tempered my expectations on everything Star Wars related.

And franchise off shoots and rookie picks as well.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Phantom menace shits over all the new Star Wars films.

Mainly because of Darth Jar Jar.


Change my mind.

 

[Jiggyman]

I used to think that too but I changed my views. The last jedi had some shite parts in it for sure but it had some important moments also from a spiritual stand point. Luke taking on the whole empire without using his sabre for one was a critical point in becoming a true jedi.

"Here is a man haunted by the mistake of igniting his weapon against his deeply troubled nephew Ben Solo, thus setting the unbalanced young adept on the course to becoming Kylo Ren"

Open up your mind and let go of the hate. I know that you are a Dark Shark but i'm hoping you can embrace the light

Great you've found some respite, but for me it was an objectively s**t film. Haven't felt like re-watching once since seeing it at IMAX (even then, nearly fell asleep). It's a convoluted mess with so many plot points that go absolutely nowhere. Would much rather watch the prequels, they had a coherent story if anything.

Would a blunt blow to the back of your head do it.

Mesa thinksa so!

The biggest flop in that film was when they destroyed the emperor's huge ship almost as big as a Death Star by simply rammng it at light speed.

I instantly though geez. Lucky they didn't worry about that when they built the Death Stars. Takes years to build costing an absolute motsa and all you need to do is ram it at light speed in a cruiser with one person driving?

And the Resistance wasted all those ships and pilots killing it when one could do it?

Riiiiiiiight!
