Judged on this season alone, Duke graded 12 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 14th of 25 of the 25 centre-forwards in the A-League, on 3 goals and 1 assist in 25 appearances (0.445 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 13 → 12). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 11, 25th of 25 of the 25 centre-forwards in the A-League. At 35 Duke is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.5 reflects that trajectory.
A career still climbing — Duke is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.

Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.45 goal contributions per 90 (0.33 goals, 0.11 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 23.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 11.1, Duke carries the 25th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the A-League of 25 — though on just 25 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.45 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
