AFL Player 2: Jacob Farrow

[Jacques_]

Feel like Zak Johnson might offer a little bit more right now, probably not room for both of them in the side. Definitely showed positive signs for the future though.

He’s played like 6 games. Surely he doesn’t need to be rested yet unless he’s injured

Love this guy, will probably end up my favourite player, but... We can't keep playing him in defence, not currently, he can't defend, or even halve a contest, all he is right now is a great kick with a little extra time in contest to use it. But all the reasons keeping Johnson out of the team, Farrow has the same issues. Being a high pick vs Johnson bargain probably the only reason one is in and one out. I'd have them both in but move them up the ground a bit to use their legs in more damaging destinations.

I think we just need to teach him to defend because I don’t see him as a mid - but you are right, he’s currently not great at defending. Is regularly caught out of position allowing his opponent goal side.

Fits in really well. Beautiful kicking action.

Hope as he gets more confidence he starts to take some slightly more aggressive options, because he should have the license to.

It's not a big criticism of him, but as good of a kick as he is, hope Brad is encouraging him to take a more attacking option if it's there. He's helped reduce our savage turnovers out of the back half since he came in, but he needs to take the ball forward more.

-33 for metres gained at halftime.
