Rd 20 | Perkins post-game
We chat with forward Archie Perkins following his return from injury in our round 20…
Perkins wasted no time settling into life at the NEC Hangar, playing 20 games in his debut season in 2021, primarily in a forward role with bursts through the midfield. His size and ability to stand up in a tackle held him in good stead and it wasn’t hard to see why the Bombers rate him so highly. Was nominated for the NAB AFL Rising Star award after a three-goal game against Adelaide in round 17.
AFL awards: 2021 AFL Rising Star nominee
Club awards: Lindsay Griffiths Rising Star (2021)
