Just watched the replay. He is exactly what we need! He can defend and he can kick.

Watching him at the ground yesterday he really does remind me of early career Grant Birchall.

Should have gothard covered who was another good performer. Hopefully gets acknowledged has been solid since debuting!

Gothard the only challenger and both been good

Think they will give it to Farrow considering our victory and opposition played.

was still $31 earlier.
he would comfortably be in the top 3.

if he can consistently rack up 20 possessions a week. Plus take kick ins an and be a distributor, could be a smokey chance.

Need to extend his contract now. The W.A clubs will be circling.

He’s not going to anywhere.

The secondary benefit to Farrow doing well is that we won’t have to worry about Martin playing behind the ball anymore and he can spend more time in the forward half

Farrow’s footskills have surely been significantly underrated coming into his draft year. All the talk was about Lindsay and his skills….I can’t think of the last bombers player to be able to kick the ball the way he does. Once he feels physically comfortable and moves into the midfield. Watch out.

Absolute star.

We likely don’t need to rush him into the midfield.
But in a few years it could be the fab 3 - Robey, Farrow + Sharp.

Farrow just has that get the ball in my hands and will take kicks that the average fan cant even see are there. Similarities for now - Grant Birchall, Bailey Dale, Matt Suckling and Farrow also has ability to transition into a interceptor Sicily/Ridley type. As well as a midfielder -like Ed Richards, Jordan Dawson, Harry Sheezel.

One of the best kicks of the night though was Day-Wicks almost chased down did a 180 and kicked it out into space for Duursma I think to run onto it close to 50.

When we we drafted him I was looking forward to seeing Roberts and Farrow off half back…it didn’t disappoint, what a dynamic duo.

Guys doing these 1% things as 17 year olds, sort of leads to them doing the right things of AFL professional environment. We have drafted well.

“I did a lot of sprint work, and got a coach which gave me a lot of confidence to take the game on, run and have a bounce, take territory and use my skills by foot.

“I felt quicker and stronger through the legs with my ability to drive out of contest.”

I see light in the tunnel and it’s not a train coming the other way

Clouds do have silver linings after all

No pain no gain

Can’t think of any more cliches right now, but this years draft crop looks very promising!!! As supporters we need some hope for the future.

Go Dons!!!
