Mitch Farmer

[Mr Magic]

Poor again.

The guy is useless!!!!

I just hope he doesn't become the coaches pet. It will like Frawley/Fiora or Wallace/shultz all over again.

mitch farmer, ben mason, shane edwards are too small

mitch farmer, ben mason, shane edwards are too small

I don't know how many times this needs to be disproved, but it has nothing to do with size, it's about quality

That is the bottom line.  Despite that it is often the small forwards that tear us a new one, some keep sprouting this line.

All three of the players mentioned by torch are taller than Milne, so does that mean he is too small too?

how many clubs play with the size of Nason, King, Nahas, White, Farmer, Edwards all in the one team. not many im guessing.

too many of the same in 1 team. open your eyes and you will see it too. It wasnt wet like last week it was a dry ground and we played too small.

FLMAO at Farmer replacing Schulz on our list. Schulz is actually a better player.lol

i call Farmer footsteps as every time he touched the ball he fumbles like someone who is going to bend him over from behind and pound his sorry arse

little sissy. Dimma drop him and put us out of our misery

Would agree.
Seen Nason get crunched a ripper by Del Santo last night ( who is hardly a tough player )

add king to that list as well. with tambling in the side ... its way to small.

edwards is improving and has put on some size and tambling should be the only midgets in the side, if we need a 3rd Nason should play ahead of Nahaaaaaa

Byrnes, Stokes, Chapman, Wojinski, Ablett, Selwood.

Bateman, Hooper, Brown, Rioli, Osbourne, Mitchell, Sewell.

Betts, Joseph, Murphy, Yarran, Garlett, Armfield.

Campbell, Harvey, Garlett, Adams, Ross, Urquhart, Wells, Thomas

Montagna, Milne, McQualter, Scheider, Baker.


I can't be stuffed going through the rest but there are 5 teams that suggest we are pretty close to the same amount of "midgets" playing as anyone else.

It's about body size and quality that gets us at the moment because of where our list is at.

Milne stats:

kicks 16, handballs 5, marks contested 2,  marks uncontested 9, tackles 3, clearences 3, goals 5.


Farmer stats:

poo himself 15, unaccountable 9, soft 21, shephards 0, tackles 1.

1 tackle 2 weeks in a row is consistant I say!

To be fair, Farmer only played on Milne for some of the 2nd half
Thursfield was on him in the first half and got smashed also

well im going to go against the grain and openly state I've seen a few good signs from farmer the past 2 weeks and think long term he'll make it. Hasnt been impressive to date, but just the way he selflessly and naturally leaves his man to be a chop out, his hardness has impressed me and his kicking seems more to be a confidence thing bc mechanically it looks ok to me and he can really roost it. Got to remember hes only played about 10 or so games so hes going to have that "rabbit in headlights" look about him for another 20 or so games. Reckon he'll be ok

I agree with you 100%.  I think he has looked really good at times.  He has set up some great plays too, some good drive out of defence and attack further up the field.  He will only get better.  People are judging him like a player who has been around for years, he is pretty new at this level.

you guys crack me up. He isn't hard, he isn't impressive and he hasn't looked good. He looks scared and nervous. He doesn't shepherd nor does he tackle enough. Send him to Coburg until he can actually do the things you write. The guy is just a younger version of another overated hack...... Hislop.
