AFL career

Berry debuted for Brisbane in the second round of the 2020 AFL season, against Fremantle at the Gabba.[8][9][10] Berry picked up 9 disposals, 3 marks and a tackle.[11] He was nominated for Mark of the Year in his debut match, "showing great courage in his first AFL game to take a mark like this with the commentary team comparing him to the great Jonathan Brown."[12][13]
