On long-term talent our Rating reads 8, 29th of 41 of the 41 centre-backs in the A-League. At 35 Davidson is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.2 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th of 12) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 7.7, Davidson carries the 29th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the A-League of 41. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.69 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~1), then tapers with age. At 35, Davidson sits on 0.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Davidson's projected Rating — 7.7 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
