Cuningham arrives at the Seagulls after a nine-year AFL career with Carlton, and a 2025 stint at Footscray’s VFL side.
Cuningham played 58 senior games for the Blues, kicking 30 goals during his time.
The 28-year-old, originally selected with pick No, 23 in the 2015 AFL Draft, was a NAB AFL Rising Star nominee back in 2017.
Cuningham had a career-best season in 2023, averaging 13.8 disposals, 3.7 tackles, and 2.2 marks per game.
In 2025, Cuningham spent time with the Bulldogs, playing six games and kicking five goals.
Williamstown GM of Football operations, Ash Collins, welcomed Cuningham’s arrival.
“We’re excited to have David join the Seagulls,” Collins said.
“He brings AFL experience, strong skills, and a competitive edge that will be invaluable for our team.
“He adds versatility across midfield and forward lines, combined with his determination and leadership, will strengthen our team as we aim for a strong next season.”
Cuningham’s signing, alongside new recruit Braydon Preuss from GWS, positions Williamstown’s 2026 squad for an exciting year ahead.
