He was elected to the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly at the 2020 Johnston by-election, representing the Australian Labor Party (ALP). He previously played professional football for the Richmond Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL) from 1996 to 2009.
Early life
Bowden was born at the Mildura Base Hospital in Mildura, Victoria to mother Judy and father Michael Bowden (a Richmond Football Club premiership player),[2] one of four biological brothers (including older brother Sean Bowden and younger brother Patrick Bowden) he was part of a football dynasty.[3]
Bowden's family moved to the remote South Australian community of Ernabella in the 1980s as a very young boy where his father Michael was a community advisor. He spent a couple of years playing with indigenous children in the area. The family returned to Mildura for a few years before returning to Alice Springs in 1987 where Michael became a teacher and where Joel completed his schooling from the age of 9.[2]
Joel played for the Northern Territory Schoolboys in 1993. He was named in the All-Australian Schoolboy’s team and won the J.L Williams Medal as best player. In 1994 he once again represented the Northern Territory.[4] In addition to football, Bowden represented the Northern Territory twice in cricket at under 17 level.[2]

In 2006, Bowden was among the leading possession getters in the AFL, and had the most possessions shared between any two players with his brother Patrick.
