NAB AFL U18 Championships

Kevin Sheehan reviews the eye-catchers from the latest round of the 2008 AFL Under-18s Championship.

South Australia
Rhys O'Keeffe - A dashing medium-defender at 187cm, O'Keeffe, from North Adelaide, has also been prominent for his team in all three matches. Averaging 17 disposals, with four hard-ball gets, along with nine handball receives, indicates his ability to win the ball in contested situations, as well as provide great run through defence.

Lewis Johnston - Bottom-aged tall forward, Johnston (192cm), is also from North Adelaide and he shows great promise. He leads the competition in contested marking. His 10 markes up forward against WA in a beaten side was impressive along with 4 goals in game 1 from limited opportunities.
