Overall

Perryman is a GWS academy player and has been nominated by the Giants as one of their academy draftees.

He is a highly skilled, naturally gifted footballer, with brilliant knowledge of the game and he is also not afraid to throw himself into a contest and win his own footy.

He seems to have plenty of time when he has the ball in hand and has plenty of footy smarts.

Perryman is versatile, with the ability to play in the midfield, off halfback, or even in the forward line, with many experts calling him this year's Mr Fix-it.

The Reiverina product thinks quickly and is highly efficient with his disposal.

He lacks the athleticism and pace of other draft prospects, but makes up for it with his vision and ability to think clearly under pressure.
