Player Watch Harry Perryman

[3rdMan]

It's great to see we have him set for a midfield role. An extra strong body in there will help. Last year we had to make do with weak options when both Jordy and Mitchell were out. An extremely important addition.

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

Don't pay the Perryman!!
Don't even fix a price!!

(Wife is gonna kill me this year)

 

[Kirby]

With that n.12 jumper and playing style it was hard not to think of Luke Ball.

 

[jmac70]

Good game.
Looks calm and assured with ball in hand.

 

[josewales]

Hope he can give us some inside intel leading into the opening round

 

[The_Anvil]

Played his role well didn't he. What a difference it makes having another nicely skilled hard body in the middle. Think he will really compliment this side well moving forward

Led the game for tackles. Love to see it.

Spot on! I thought exactly same thing. It was uncanny.

But, but, but he ain’t a midfielder!!! - Kane Cornflakes

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

I thought that I was accomplished at identifying players, both ours and opponents, but I literally am yet to notice this guy.
With all the fanfare and lofty contract, I hope he can be conspicuous in our quest this year.
Or maybe I just go down to specsavers..

Yeah, you definitely need to go to Specsavers, he was everywhere around stoppages, had double digit tackles, kicked a goal, set up one or two others.

I think Harry will kill by stealth - he does everything well and has a good footy brain.
You won't notice him so much, then, by game's end, he'll have half a dozen tackles, 25 possies and a goal or two.

The type of player that you know will do well in the Copeland

Spot on. Rock solid tough as teak mid. He’ll be in our top 10 come Copeland night. The coaches will love him.

He’s a stealth pighter

 

[Anzacday]

I know he’s been compared to Bally.
I can’t stop thinking he’s a bit like Sidey - right spots, runs all day.

A Ball/Sidey hybrid sounds good to me

A Sideball.
Sounds painful.

 

[Tadpole]

They have a cream for that now.

Bold prediction that no one will remember at the end of the year anyway, unless I'm right in which case you'll all hear about it from me:

Perryman to finish top 3 in the Copeland.

Bold indeed and FWIW .... he finished in 8th in the Kevin Sheedy 2024 Medal. 6th in 2022. 3rd in 2020

I love this guy. Yes, I am enthusiastic about him. I rate him quite highly as every time I have watched us play GWS, I remember thinking often, 'shit, this guy is one desperate defender who wills himself to win every contest he is a part of and reads the play and works the angles beautifully.'

He is not as tall, but right now, is the closest thing we have to a 'plug and play' Nathan Murphy replacement! His reading of the play in defence is exceptional and he will sacrifice his own game for the good of the team.

Whether he is as effective to team success as a midfielder is yet to be seen.... but we have a desperate, smart and awesome defender regardless! I wouldn't be surprised if he eventually settles into an All-Australian defender, releasing Moore, IQ, J Daicos and Houston to do the offensive damage.

Looking forward to watching him develop as he's only 26 yo and one would think entering his prime.

He looked really good as a Inside Mid vs Richmond so interesting how they play Perryman

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

I listened to his interview with Kane and Kingy this morning, he sounds so down to earth and a good humoured bloke.

Sounds better than a ballbottom.
