They're all very, very exciting and talented.
I think the one that I've worked really closely with is Jacob Farrow down back.
He reminds me a lot of many different players, but he reminds me a lot of a young Jordan Ridley, just with his composure.
His calmness, obviously he was awarded with the Rising Star Nom this week.
You forget sometimes that he's 18, like the head on his shoulders is unbelievable.
I feel like all our draftees as well as sort of second and third year players have just come in with an appetite to learn and get better and Jacob's no different and I'm really excited to see him grow and develop into an amazing AFL player in the red and black and I'll say him but I could say multiple in that question.
Very much so.
Very much so.
No, I noticed that a few weeks ago.
He obviously was struck down with a back injury pretty early on, so I think he did one training with us.
We loved what we saw, and then he was struck down for a couple of months there, but...
Just seeing him move around the VFL the last couple of weeks and then bring that form into the AFL, he moves exactly like Luke.
It's obviously a big compliment.
Luke's a superstar of our competition, but I think Sullivan can be right up there with the very best.
His size, his physicality, and even his calmness on the weekend.
He had a few moments that wouldn't have been noticed on the screen, but just showed great maturity.
He was able to fit right into our system, bring the energy, and he definitely didn't look like an 18-year-old out there.
Yeah, Sam was awesome.
I'd say he was a massive part as to why we got the result.
