Central Coast Mariners
After joining the Mariners youth team for the 2012–13 National Youth League, Neill's performances earned him a two-year contract with the senior side.[3] He missed most of the 2013–14 season with injury.[2] In October 2014, Neill made his competitive debut for the Mariners, playing a full match in a 5–0 win over Palm Beach in the FFA Cup.[4] He made his A-League debut for the club in a loss to Perth Glory in November 2014.[5] Late in 2014, Neill suffered an injury which saw him ruled out for the remainder of the 2014–15 season. In February 2015 Neill signed an extension with the Mariners until mid-2017.[6]
