Playing career
editScahill was graded by the Balmain Tigers in 1993. He made his first grade debut at five-eighth in his side's 19−18 victory over the South Sydney Rabbitohs at the Sydney Cricket Ground in round 12 of the 1993 season. With the retirement of long serving hooker Benny Elias at the end of the 1994 season, Scahill shifted into the hooking role where he would play the remainder of his career.[citation needed]
Scahill played his final game of first grade in his side's 44−6 loss to the Sydney City Roosters in round 22 of the 1995 season. Scahill was released by the Tigers at the end of the season and never played first grade rugby league again. In total, Scahill played 16 games and scored 1 try.[2]
