Deividas Uosis Biography

Brisbane delist Ely Smith, Mitchell Cox and Deividas Uosis.

"It's an unfortunate time of year when changes must be made due to pressure for list spots," Brisbane general manager football, Danny Daly said.

"All three are extremely hard-working individuals who represented themselves with great professionalism and diligence during their time at the club."

The Lions confirm the signing of Irishman Deividas Uosis who will join as a Category B rookie after impressing at the AFL's European Combine last December.

Lithuanian-born athlete Deividas Uosis, who moved to Ireland at age four and starred at the AFL Europe Combine in December, will join Brisbane's list in 2021.

"I was surprised to get the call," Uosis told the Irish Independent.

"I was told I tested well at the Combine. Everyone did interviews at the Combine but Brisbane were the first to come back to me and when they did, I wasn't going to miss that opportunity.

"It's a dream to go down there and play professional sport."
