With a small body size and wide skill set reminiscent of legendary Bomber Darren Bewick, Ned Cahill arrives at Tullamarine with a reputation of a pressure forward coming off a flank who can also rotate through midfield. He was a regular goalscorer in his junior days, usually good for a goal per game from just on 20 disposals with four tackles and plenty of pressure acts. Cahill will find the going tougher at his new club with a frame of his size, which leads one to speculate that his fate may be to move to a forward pocket rather than the flanks due to lesser competition from older players. The Dons don't have an established second forward pocket post the retirement of Mark Baguley, so he will battle with the likes of Josh Begley and Irving Mosquito.
