However, despite impressing fellow teammates and coaching staff with his performance, Davey said he has quickly learned a lot more hard work lies ahead if he is to consistently play senior football this season.
""I think I did alright. My performance wasn’t too bad. It was a good game in which all of the players pulled together and had a decent hit out,"" Davey explained.
""I was happy that I was able to kick three but when you look at it, it was really just like a normal game where I’m expected to get out there and kick goals. So it wasn’t anything special.
""I’ve pulled up a bit sore in the legs but they should be alright. I’m going to get a massage at the club tomorrow so I will be right.""
Fitness and strength are the two areas Davey hopes to improve on in the coming weeks.
""After a game like that it is obvious that I still need to work on my body and I need to get a bit more fitness in me which will hopefully improve my game improve,"" he revealed.
""With a bit of luck I will get a couple of games this year but in order to do so I know I need to focus on the key areas of my game. I plan to concentrate on my goal kicking and working with the rest of the forward line.""
With the Bombers first competitive match less than three weeks away against the Indigenous All Stars in Darwin, Davey is hopeful that he may gain another opportunity to test his ability against some of the best in the business.
""I’m really looking forward to the trip up to Darwin. It would be a great opportunity for any player to take part in, especially being an indigenous player myself,"" he said.
""The All Stars line-up is impressive so hopefully I will get a chance to play for Essendon in such an exciting match.""
And with his brother and Melbourne spearhead Aaron Davey looking likely to make an appearance for the All Stars, the game looks set to become quite a family affair.
