Central Coast Mariners
Farrell signed a senior contract with Central Coast Mariners in November 2021, aged eighteen, after 6 years with the Central Coast Mariners Academy.[1] He made his first-team debut for the Mariners in a win over Blacktown City in the 2021 FFA Cup on 13 November 2021.[2]
He made his A-League Men debut on 21 November 2021 in an F3 Derby against Newcastle Jets and scored a header in a 2–1 win.[3] Farrell went on to be a regular starter for the Mariners in their 2021–22 season.[4]
Farrell came on as a substitute in the second half of the 2023 A-League Men Grand Final. Within fifteen minutes of coming on, Farrell earned two penalties for the Mariners, both of which were scored by Jason Cummings as the Mariners won 6–1 to claim the A-League Men Championship.[5]
The 2023-24 season turned out to be another successful season, as Farrell was part of the Mariners' 2023-24 premiership winning season.[6]
Farrell was called up to the Australian under-23 side for the 2022 AFC U-23 Asian Cup in June 2022.[7]
