Perry, who celebrated his 18th birthday late in the season, was crowned the Magpies’ best and fairest, eight votes clear of another rising star Billy Mahony.
With the Magpies struggling for numbers, Perry played 17 senior games in 2015 and 11 under-18 games.
Mahony started the season with the Bendigo Pioneers in the TAC Cup before returning to the Magpies where he was one of their most consistent midfielders.
Cassidy’s win in the A-grade netball best and fairest capped a big year for the midcourt star.
Earlier this season Cassidy played her 300th game for the club and she was awarded BFNL life membership.
Her one-vote win over Alisha Chadwick was her sixth best and fairest award at Maryborough and third-straight A-grade crown.
