Cameron O'SHEA
#24 Carlton
Age: 26 |
Games: 81 | Born: Mar 13, 1992 |
Height: 193 |
Weight: 91 |
Position: |
2016 Digest: Versatile defender who seems to always be on the fringe of selection without ever cementing his spot in the 22. Has had a much more consistent pre-season than in previous years and is doing everything he can to be in the back six full-time.
2016 NAB Cup: Figured down back in first two games then missed out against the Tigers. Demon Dean Kent got under his skin in Elizabeth.
2016 Season
Played for : Port Adelaide
1 | SANFL | Decent game in defence. Enjoyed a particularly big second half. | - |
2 | SANFL | Probably needed to do more to lead Port’s inexperienced backline. | - |
3 | SANFL | Put his hand up with solid 20-disposal outing. Massive second term. | - |
4 | SANFL | Bye. | - |
5 | Geel | Didn’t respond to the call-up. Might be banished back to SANFL. | 1 |
6 | Rich | Member of back six who did his job against talls and smalls. | 6 |
7 | Bris | Good match-up on Keays, who lucky for O’Shea didn’t have his kicking boots on. | 5 |
8 | Carl | A non-factor as an attacking weapon in defence and had hands full with Everitt early. | 3 |
9 | WCE | Did the job on Darling, keeping him goalless. | 6 |
10 | Melb | Followed Watts in Port’s back half. Shaded on the day but had to deal with wrist complaint. | 4 |
11 | Coll | Covered very well defensively and chose the right time to come off his opponent to support. | 6 |
12 | WB | Battled manfully in an inexperienced backline. | 6 |
13 | Frem | Defended well despite the pressure inside Freo’s forward line. | 6 |
15 | Rich | Completely nullified Deledio in the first half. | 6 |
16 | Haw | Poor third quarter when he gave away four free kicks. | 4 |
17 | SANFL | Energetic with his run and rebound. Laid some hard tackles too. | - |
18 | SANFL | Bye. | - |

5 | SANFL | Flitted in and out of the match. Unlikely to get an AFL recall just yet. | - |

2013 Season
Played for : Port Adelaide
1 | Melb | Had the job on Sellar and beat him hands down. Solid effort. | 6 |
2 | GWS | Booted first goal and did some good things. | 4 |
3 | Adel | His style of play suits Ken Hinkley’s game with hard running forward and back. | 6 |

5 | WCE | Had the better of Darling keeping him to just one goal. | 7 |
6 | NM | Good at interceptions in defence on Black. | 5 |
7 | Rich | Utility playing his role across half back and half forward. | 5 |

10 | WB | Did a good job on Addison and won plenty of ball himself | 7 |
12 | GWS | Racked up the touches at half back and pushed forward for two goals. Super. | 7 |

14 | Coll | Slotted in well across half back and managed five clearances. | 5 |
15 | Ess | Competed hard in defence, but Winderlich was too slippery as game wore on. | 5 |
16 | Haw | Started on Gunston and outplayed by the Hawk forward. | 4 |
17 | StK | Good honest worker but output decreased in second half. | 5 |
18 | Bris | His reading of the play is exceptional; his disposal on occasions is not. | 7 |
19 | Adel | Played on Lynch and kept him goalless. | 7 |
20 | Geel | Hammered by Motlop early and moved. Got better when freed from that match-up. | 5 |
21 | GCS | Once he cleans up his disposal efficiency will become an elite half back. | 6 |

23 | Carl | Played a great game with five inside 50s and four scoring assists. | 8 |
EF | Coll | Calm and courageous under pressure | 6 |
