The manager sees him as somebody to bring on for the second half if we're one up and we just need to hold what we have and control things a bit.
I'm sure he'll be, if he's fit, he's going to be in the 20, isn't he?
He'll want to be playing from the start, but I'm not sure how he gets into that starting 11.
No, I didn't see it, but so I've heard.
That's another good option to have back in the squad, isn't it?
Especially if Ogilvy is going to be seen as the centre-half replacement for Shaughnessy.
It might be that if Messina, as much as Zach Swanson has done OK over that side,
Massino might have seen enough from Farrell now he's back up to fitness and seen what he can do on the training field it gives you a bit more balance having a left footer over that side doesn't it so maybe he's thinking that if he's going to use Ogilvy in the centre Farrell could get the nod on the left be a bit harsh on Swanson I think to be dropped if that was the case
I don't think he'll bring Farrell in to start on Sunday.
I think that would be too big a call.
I think he's more likely to stick with the back four he had last night, Swanson, Ogilvie, Poole, Devlin.
You've got Williams there as a spare one as well.
He came on for Swanson at half-time.
But no, you just hope that Farrell can stay fit, get a run of games at some point and show us what he can do.
Because in the brief time we saw him last season, he looked OK, didn't he?
He looked good and we were quite excited about it.
We were thinking, oh, he's going to be pushing Ogilvy for a start.
And of course it didn't happen at all for him.
So, yeah, best of luck to him.
