Western Australia draft prospect Jacob Farrow<\/a> is a 187cm midfielder-defender from West Perth.<\/p>\n

The standout performer from Western Australia’s U18s carnival, Farrow rose into first-round conversations thanks to his prolific patch of form for the Black Swans as a dual-position prospect.<\/p>\n

Farrow’s frame allows him to be a force at the contest as well as behind the ball, using his strength and physicality to get the better of his direct opponent.<\/p>\n

His read of the game is often a springboard for Farrow to get into the best position and make his mark, whether that be as an interceptor or at stoppage.<\/p>\n

With ball in hand, the WA draft star is a damaging asset in all three thirds of the field, shaking off pressure and having a profound impact with his long-kicking left foot.<\/p>\n

Farrow broke through for three WAFL games for the Falcons this year, showing promise and poise at the senior level to average over 17 disposals and five marks each outing.<\/p>\n

That stint was bookended by eye-catching form at the Colts level as a bona fide ball winner who looked a touch above.<\/p>\n

As for Farrow’s draft prospects, the WA sensation could sneak into the top 10 bracket, but looks likely to shortly follow that pack instead.<\/p>\n

Both WA clubs will be keen, with West Coast best positioned at Pick 13. Hawthorn, GWS, the Western Bulldogs<\/a> and Adelaide may also be in the mix for Farrow, who could be a Round 1 selection off the back of his maiden pre-season with a top flight club.<\/p>\n
