Hockey: Isaac Farmilo savours Hockey One shot

The Workies striker made his debut for Adelaide on Sunday, and while the Fire were burned by the Brisbane Blaze 5-1, Farmilo relished the experience and would love to have the opportunity to don the red and blue again.

"I'd love to play every other game now and add to that start," he said.

He was pretty happy with how he played, although his opportunities were a bit limited with the Fire struggling to penetrate the Kookaburras-stacked midfield.

"Their entire midfield was part of the Kookaburras," Farmilo said.

"We just kept turning the ball over in the midfield."

It meant a lot of running back and forth.

He still managed to snag himself a goal - the Fire's only, which he said was pretty sweet.

"I was pretty pumped up at the time," he said.

"It felt like we were back in the game. We were 3-nil down at that stage."

That made it 3-1 at half-time and gave them a needed lift going into the break.

He did however admit, he got a bit caught up in the moment and was running back into position when he was reminded by one of his team-mates that he had a 'conversion' to take.

One of the novel rules of the competition is that the goalscorer has the chance the chance to double-up via a one-on-one shootout with the keeper.

Farmilo just missed his conversion, his shot hitting the post.

No stranger to playing at the top level - he's worn the green and gold, and in 2017 suited up for Northern Territory in the Australian Hockey League, he said Sunday was probably the highest intensity game he has experienced.

While he has played 100-minute games before he "hasn't played a game of that intensity for that long".

The Fire's next game is against Western Australia on Friday night.
