Sheed is a strong, physical midfielder who is a great decision maker. Has a thumping long kick and is capable of finishing off in front of goal. Born in Kalgoorlie, Sheed moved to Perth to pursue his football, progressing through the ranks at Subiaco, eventually playing at league level in the WAFL. He won the Larke Medal as the best player in division one of this year's NAB AFL Under-18 Championships.
AFL.com.au says: Sheed's a doer. If the ball is thereabouts, Sheed just goes and gets it without much fuss. He enjoys the competition of beating a group of players to the ball and then making the next move. As such, the strong, physical midfielder is good at winning contested possessions.
He's also a big left-foot kick, usually thumping the ball as long as possible. He reads the game well, has clean hands, and has the type of physique that will stand up to an AFL system right away.
Recruiters Comment: "He's been a pretty well performed player for a few years now. He's had two years of AIS/AFL Academy and has played league football for Subiaco for two years now. We think he's been up among the higher echelon of talent for a couple of years now and it was interesting to see that we were aligned with Dom. To have him available at pick 11 was really pleasing." – Rohan O'Brien
