Draft Dreams and NGA Hopefuls: Essendon’s 2025 National Draft Preview (feat. Rick Edwards)

With trade week done and dusted, it’s time to turn our attention to the 2025 National Draft. Jonathan Walsh and Ian Hume are joined by draft watcher and training-vision legend Rick Edwards for a deep dive into the players Essendon could target with picks 5, 6, 21, 27 and 30. Rick shares his Top 10 prospects, breaks down the strengths, weaknesses, and comparisons of names like Willem Duursma, Sullivan Robey, Cooper Duff-Tytler and Xavier Taylor, and reveals a few smokeys who might surprise on draft night. We also discuss Essendon’s Next Gen Academy prospects Adam Sweid and Hussein El-Achkar, plus some future Bombers to watch in Blake Justice, Koby Bewick and Tevita Rodan. It’s an episode packed with analysis, insight, and the kind of detail only Don The Stat brings. _______________________ Links: Don The Stat Website | The Official Home of Don The Stat  Don The Stat Patreon Rick's Patreon Don The Stat on Facebook  Don The Stat on Instagram  Follow Us on X / Twitter Jono / Ian  And Bluesky: Jono / Ian
