Not fit enough.
Great that he went to Arizona.
Needs 2 more solid pre seasons though.
Of course, he could be a very good hff’er if left there.
I do hope he can make the jump like Caldwell and Durham have done this year as a mid though.
A Max Holmes type.
Sure, Holmes is a little more explosive, but Archie’s more damaging by foot.
We need it to happen.
Perkins needs to show far more intent and interest when without the ball.
As was posted a few days ago, he seems content just to be an AFL footballer.
It’s up to him to decide if it’s enough just to have a career mired in mediocrity. The talent seems to be there, the attitude less so.
How’s he overrated? Pretty much everyone doesn’t rate him that highly. From comments the most praise is that he is a decent footballer who is a very good kick inside 50 but that he isn’t playing well.
To be overrated people have to singing his praises from the mountaintops.
Blitz certainly isn’t an accurate representation of the general footy public in my experience. It takes a longggg time for public sentiment to shift. Currently, he’s overrated in a broad sense.
By whom?
Maybe he’s just got the same problem as Redman, just needs to grow his locks back … 
Every nuffie, along with commentators banging on about Archie Perkins and Peter Wright (who of course didn’t get a game at GC and was a bargain for a future fourth).
Every single time.
He is an average footballer, out of form at the moment. Is definitely not a match winner. Far from it.
Yes but remember that one time…etc…etc
Archie is one of my boys, but maybe he needs a few games in the VFL to find his aggression.
Gee he needs a spell in the VFL.
Was horrible. That dropped mark in the last quarter could have been a game changer. Made up for it a bit later, but boy he’s not having any impact.
Some good, some bad but he’s really not done much for some time - unsure who replaces him though
He has some undeniable talent. But his lack of defensive running is hurting us big time. He got demolished in the first half by Sidebottom (who was probably one bad game away from career oblivion only a few weeks ago). I think it’s time for someone else to get an opportunity.
If ever a player was desperate for a goal
He has it, but FMD that dropped mark deserves a spell in the Magoo’s.
He absolutely needs a foot in the ass.
Lol… think about that turnover by Ridley or McKay or Merrett that cost goals. Think about Martin and how many goals he cost us this year with turnovers.
Now Archie does it once and you want him in the reserves. Ridley gets easily pushed over in contests… maybe he goes to the reserves first.
Remember this Archie Perkins?
“Come back Archie!”
He’s been lucky to be in the Seniors for the last 5-6 weeks.
Burnt Caddy and Langers something fierce on that missed shot too
