@BomberBanter_au It’s small things… not surprised Caldwell had a flat year last year

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@pommyinozYT Really dislike Eime for the dons. We’ve got Artemis, Coleman, Johnson, farrow and redman all as aggressive style attacking hbf. Would much rather Krasna or Dimer.

@E_Essendonyt In the first 7 players, who has the highest ceiling in the draft? And then who outside of the top 7 has the highest ceiling?
Who does he think will make the biggest impact in year 1?

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@Rob952046756664 @ScooterMcNeice I completely get that, just sharing my own opinion. I personally have him last in that top 7 group of prospects, closer to Ethan Matthews, and personally hope Essendon dont take him.
Happy to be wrong, and if Essendon do take him I’m sure I’ll come around to loving him 😂

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@Rob952046756664 @ScooterMcNeice I don’t see him having the speed of a Warner or the power of a Lalor. For me he seems closer to maybe a Steele Sidebottom sort of player. Obviously still a great player but for me just lacking some x-factor.

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@ScooterMcNeice I really wish they did the end of year combine. I don’t know why, but Tex just strikes me as a jack of all trades

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@ScooterMcNeice Yeah fair.
I looked it up, didnt realise Tex actually kicked three more goals than Arki in the same amount of total champs and talent league games.
I don’t know why, but something about Tex puts me off

@XanderMcGuire7 @PatrickRyen @sambenno we’ll have to fly to Perth
This is stupid as hell

@NickKayal You’re a joke

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@brunsonsburner3 At least post an apology tweet 😂

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@_Daniel_Pell He has improved his ball use and is now decent enough as an inside mid. Like others have said though, defensive running is very poor. Looks quick in attack but then looks half as quick when chasing.
Also lacks any sort of position flexibility, he’s only an inside mid.

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@EFCMitch2 If Dons walk away with Drever, Snell, Krasna and Justice I’ll be stoked!
Hoping we can get one of the 3 key defenders.

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@alkaiuf_ Think you do a great job with this. Love it from an Essendon point of view with Snell and Dimer. Some feedback - I think dons will definitely take Justice. Maybe snag Antrobus with pick 43 to have positions covered. Might not re-sign Cox or Gerryn to make room for justice

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@PatrickRyen @Bombers_Boss There are some players in that 15-30 range who I really rate too. Guys like Cooke, Krasna, Szerzycn, Dimer, Patterson and Wigmore all have some great traits.

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@alkaiuf_ Think you’ve done a great job on essendons pick. Only change I would make is picking Snell instead of Cooke (I love cooke) but think we’re more desperate for a key defender.

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@BazNMFC Essendon giving up Ridley and 19 for two duds and picks 41 and 43 😂

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@AllEssendon Add in Sam Marshall and I’d be very happy

[Tom Perkin @tom_perkin1]

@JesuschristOB @FlightPlanPod ‘You Minnow club’ 😂
Essendon hasn’t won a final in 20 whatever years, won 2 games this season and were still 7th in membership numbers. Literally the opposite of minnow
