I believe that the occasional free kick given away for aggression (as long as they don't get reported) is actually a good thing. Fires the players up, shows dominance over opponents, etc
Sounds like a beauty. Could he be another Cale Hooker type? Cale was forward when he came in. His build looks like he could AFL ready this year. Hopefully he develops professionism early. Don't worry about his hardness at ball. We need tougher types.
He’s predominantly a forward who can pinch hit in the ruck. Very mobile, good in the air and on the ground, really good kick on both sides of his body and 200cm. What isn’t there to like about him. Being so tall he may take time to fully mature but sooooo exciting!
I’m not a Essendon supporter but I believe the Bombers have got one here in Gerreyn. I was hoping Richmond where going to get him with one of are later picks ? I’m very happy with what we got! Ones I was keen on that other Clubs got were Lindsey , Gerreyn , Berry but I guess that’s me just being greedy as you can not get them all 🤣😂😁
Wanted us to pick up Archer Day wicks with pick 61 if he was available and got him in the Rookie draft. Talents definitely there let's hope he can impact at the next level, what's your thoughts?
He looks reasonable on his highlights video. Pretty clean with the footy. I'm not sure aggression is such a bad thing, the boys need to fire up a bit 😂
If they took him as a 2 metre key forward who can crash a pack, and now you tell me he's good for a 50+ metre kick... then what's not to like? He's gonna make Caddy look small, given that he's towering over him already. My only concern is that Brad won't give the new blokes a run, which relates to kids walking out well before their time. Nobody wants to be reminded of how Massimo was ignored.
4 picks in the next 2 rounds next year. Sorry we couldn’t get Anderson but not unhappy. Happy with Gerreyn. Can we keep him or will he want to go home?
Apparently Anderson is a hawks NGA player so he would’ve always ended up there idk that idk how I follow the draft well didn’t hear it till draft night!
Exactly what we need size and toughness
He’s a tough boy
Excited to see how this lad develops.
Me too! Could be a good get
I really like the look of him. Big boy who is agile and not afraid to crash packs. Good pick
Yep! Should be fun to watch

I agree, was just struggling to find another weakness 😂
I was hoping for Jobe but I'll gladly take Kayle
Me too, good backup

He’ll need to work on his defensive craft a lot, I see him as more of a forward

Agreed, exciting pickup

Mate the Tigers aced it, you should be over the moon
Can't get them all? Richmond gave it a good go, and came close to getting them all 😂
@@Howsthat-xq3sn it's amazing the haul Richmond got.. Dreamtime is ours this year though :))) maybe not after that
For somebody with not very much ruck experience he’s pretty good in the ruck
Indeed, can only get getter
Wanted us to pick up Archer Day wicks with pick 61 if he was available and got him in the Rookie draft. Talents definitely there let's hope he can impact at the next level, what's your thoughts?
Big fan of that pickup, will discuss more in a video tomorrow
Somehow reminds me of a young Roger Merrett...
Welcome to Bomberland Kayle. 👍
I’ll take even half of Roger as a player here
The WA state jumper is a banger!
Agreed! Love it
Love the channel ❤️
Im still not sure if we did well in the draft or not. 5 new players seems good. Hopefully at least a couple end up in the Afl.
I think a few should, time will tell for those later picks
He looks reasonable on his highlights video. Pretty clean with the footy.

He would have definitely built a highlights reel, loves a big mark
Kayle, Caddy & Kakko....10yr + forward line
Hope so!
Yeah boy !
He reminds me of a young Johnathan Brown we should develop him as a CHF great pick
He’ll play forward for us
Looks like a good replacement for Draper.
What do you think Draper is worth for a trade to Adelaide? First or second round?
It’ll be free agency compensation if he leaves, likely first round
He already looks better than cox
Looks bigger than him for sure
Someone on the list needs to shout Coxy a few beers and some pub grub …. All preseason
Cox's last season!

A few aspects he’ll need to improve before he really gets going, I trust him to do so though
I wanted Jobe but I did have a great feeling about him and hoped that we would get him.
Same, unfortunately the Eagles snapped him up
I like the pick. With those sorts of traits he's definitely worth 37. And I'll take anyone aggressive at Essendon. Could be anything.
Far from a bolter, many think he could have even gone earlier

Apparently Anderson is a hawks NGA player so he would’ve always ended up there idk that idk how I follow the draft well didn’t hear it till draft night!
We’ve got quite a few WA boys, hopefully they convince him to stay
I watch whole draft and I was sad when we lost Jobe
I was hoping he kept sliding down
Me too, we just missed him. 😞
He won’t stay at the eagles for long
Sounds like we are setting up for Draper to leave at the end of next year. ❤️🖤❤️🖤
Gerreyn is more of a forward I think, but it’s good depth in case it happens
If it means getting a first round pick for him, I say let him go.
@glendagravis8783 draper is not special. Ranked 193rd by average sc score.
Many many ruckman above him
Do we get a pick if draper leaves?
@@peterzhou2567It all depends on where he goes is prepared to pay for him.
Yeah good vibes 👍 lets go dons!
Only gets better, I’m a big fan of some of our other selections
Any links to get highlights for these kids?
The club will probably post them soon
Bigger Walker. Looks good.
I see similarities
We will develop him in the VFL for 2 years then he'll ask for a trade to WC/Freo and we will receive a 4th rnd pick for him.
Sounds about right
It's ok we will swap him for Reid 😂😂
No, I watched a clip of him and he has always wanted to play for a big Melbourne club.
do we think if he and 2m Peter can't play well together and Peter has a drop off in form over the next few years we have found his replacement?
I doubt he plays much footy next year
Is he more promising than Jobe Shanahan?
Nup, Shanahan higher up draft boards
Gerreyn to take over from Peter Wright with Draper to move to CHF.
Doubt he plays early next year, maybe in the future
@ It’s a 2-3 year thing but you need to have a plan. Wright isn’t working.
He could play this year defo but prob next year
Another 200 cm who can kick with both sides? Uh oh. Now you done gone jinxed it
This one has a bit of muscle on him
But he's not built like a baby giraffe
Are you guys sure you don’t want to let cox play next year before totally writing him off?
