Perkins posted 65 in Essendon's 43-point shellacking by Fremantle — his second consecutive above-BE return since being recalled from the VFL after a long stint out. At $273.3k with a 40 BE, he is clearing breakeven and above his 64 average, but the selection concerns flagged in R9 haven't fully resolved. Two games back doesn't erase the question mark over his place in a crowded forward line. Watch — if he's named again in R11, upgrade to buy.
