AFL career
[edit | edit source]Unwin was drafted by Essendon with pick 61 in the 2024 national draft.[1]
Having spent most of his first season playing for Essendon's reserves team in the Victorian Football League (VFL), Unwin was selected to make his AFL debut in round 23.[2][3] Unwin kicked a goal in his debut match, and made his debut in front of 150 supporters who travelled from his hometown of Cobden, Victoria, initially to see Essendon captain and fellow Cobden local Zach Merrett's 250th match. Merrett missed the match through injury, however they got to support Unwin in his AFL debut.[4][5]
