Pick 4 - Luke Davies-Uniacke
DOB: 8/6/1999
Height: 187cm
Weight: 85kg
Recruited from: Dandenong Stingrays/Vic Country
Position: Midfielder
What they say: “The most complete midfielder in the pool enjoyed a very strong finals series for the Dandenong Stingrays, including a best afield display in their come-from-behind elimination final against the Eastern Ranges when Davies-Uniacke dragged his side over the line. Tall, strong, powerful and able to get the ball going his side's way, Davies-Uniacke is hard to stop when up and going.” - Cal Twomey, AFL.com.au (30/10/17)
What we say: “Luke’s a really exciting player, an AFL Academy graduate from the Dandenong Stingrays and Vic Country and he’s also played some outstanding footy at Haileybury College this year as well. Luke’s a big strong-bodied midfielder, he’s got a nice turn of foot as well, he can go forward and mark and kick goals, proven ball getter, so a really exciting prospect … also that capacity to go forward and have an impact there.” - Mark Finnigan, NMFC National Recruiting Manager
“Luke, prototypical size and athlete, very powerful and strong, sets himself apart with his ability to buy time with his lateral movement. Really good at accumulating the footy around the ground and his ability to consistently stand-up in big games has really made him stand-out amongst this year’s group. His elimination final against Eastern Ranges was super, and he’s another who’s gone forward and hit the scoreboard and is strong overhead.” - Ben Birthisel, NMFC Recruiting Officer
