2009 season
At 30 years of age, Collingwood midfielder Shane O’Bree has continued to impress supporters and coaches with his ability to readily improve season after season.  In his 12th year at the highest level, O’Bree averaged his highest disposal output since 2000 (22.6) with 21.8.  He was also the leader in tackles at the club with 4.8 a game (career-high) and second in the club with contested possessions (189).

Crucial to the Magpies’ midfield, O’Bree led the side in clearances for the fourth straight year with 112 and played in every match this year (25) making him one of the most durable players in the game missing only three games in the last five seasons.  He will prove to be a strong guidance next season with the young Magpie midfield.

Career
Played 19 games in two seasons at Brisbane before coming to Collingwood at the end of 1999 via the first pick in the pre-season draft, and has given great service to the black and white ever since. Now a veteran of 233 games, O'Bree has been incredibly durable and effective, having never played fewer than 18 games in a season at Collingwood. Enjoyed fine seasons in 2000 and 2001, and played an integral part in the club's 2003 Grand Final run. His last five seasons have been particularly good, having missed just three games in that five-season span, and averaged nearly 21 touches per game in that time. In 2007 he became a more damaging player by kicking long more often and averaging a career-high four tackles per game.  2008 was equally as consistent playing 23 games and leading the club in clearances and tackles. The following season was fairly similar with the midfielder contributing in every match (25) and once again leading the club in tackles and clearances.

Draft history:
1997 AFL Draft 1st round selection (Brisbane) No. 10 overall; 2000 Pre-Season Draft 1st round selection (Collingwood) No.1 overall
