Player Watch #9: Luke Davies-Uniacke - signs until end 2025! Runner up in the 2022 Syd Barker Medal Award

[amaz199]

That was such a good goal.

Been a long time since we've seen a mid breakaway from the stoppage.

He is the next legend to wear the number 9.

Gun. Superstar. Elite. Just everything you want in a footballer.

, he still finished with 27 disposals, 16 contested possessions, seven clearances and a superb goal from a forward 50 stoppage…..’

I don’t know what’s funnier, the fact that those stats mean he was ‘well held’ or that GC are using a #1 draft choice as a tagger.

Anything under 40 is “well held”. He’s a machine.

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

He did seem quieter. From the eyeball test, I thought the work they put into him limited his impact by 30-40%. The numbers ended up backing this up.

27 disposals being a half/three-quarters game indicates the certified superstar we have on our hands.

 

[roos_tt29]

Putting this one to giantroo - and feel free to tell me to take a running jump - but how easy/difficult would it be to put together and 'LDU 2022 Highlights' package for the BF tragics who need something to watch on repeat until pre-season commences?

I’d say quite difficult as unfortunately it’s still 2022.

Thankyou for spotting this - I just realised haha. 2022 please!

 

[7577969923]

I’d say quite difficult as unfortunately it’s still 2022.

They will play them on Brownlow night next year!

 

[DarkPhoenix]

It's scary to think just how much improvement he's still got in him.

 

[LB2Snake]

Not named in the U22 AA ???? Yeah righto.

Voted on by the fans that one isn’t it?

 

[Hardcore North]

Fair to say a slow burn - then EXPLOSION.
tbh had my doubts at times before this year. maybe me just being impatient but he's an absolute gun.
All doubts categorically erased. To perform like he has when the side has been down was amazing and a real show of leadership.

He’s already turned 23.

He was definitely down and still put on eye watering numbers and great work around the ground. 100% right, he's a superstar and we will quickly realise 27 and a goal is down on his usual output over the next couple years

 

[LB2Snake]

He’s already turned 23.

Oh there ya go. I saw brawshaw was in it and they were same draft.
