AFL recruiters wanting anymore evidence of young Bunbury forward Patrick Farrant’s potential should just look at this picture of him taking a screamer.

The teenager took this fantastic grab in Sunday’s South West Football League semi-final between Bunbury and Harvey-Brunswick-Leschenault at Payne Park.

Farrant became a draft bolter last month when he was named one of the 20 West Australians invited to October’s State AFL draft combine.

The 17-year-old has been in sensational form for the Bulldogs, kicking 23 goals in 17 league games.

Farrant also played five WAFL games for Swan Districts, kicking 10 goals.
