After playing junior football at the Payneham Norwood Union Football Club, O'Brien was recruited from North Adelaide Football Club,[1] he was selected with the Brisbane Lions' third selection (pick 73 overall) in the 2009 National Draft.[2] O'Brien played two pre-season matches for the Lions and then spent the first half of 2010 playing for the Lions reserves team. He made his AFL debut in round 14 against Carlton, after showing more consistency for the reserves.[3] However, O'Brien was dropped the following week[4] and he failed to play another AFL match for the rest of the 2010 season.
