Duryea was drafted with No. 69 in the 2009 AFL draft, being a fifth round selection.[2]
Tried as a small forward when he first arrived at Hawthorn, he has switched to the backline and has carried out a similar playmaking role to Matt Suckling and Brent Guerra. A knee injury to Suckling helped open up an opportunity for Duryea to debut against Collingwood in Round 3 of the 2013 AFL season.[3]
Duryea played 18 games in 2013 and won the "Best first year player" award.[4]
Duryea played 23 of a possible 25 matches in 2014. With the retirement of Brent Guerra at the end of last season, a spot opened up for the young Hawk. He was noted for his skills in rebound defense. He showed good form throughout the 2014 finals series and earned himself a premiership medal.[5]
On 9 October 2017, Duryea signed a one–year deal to remain at the club until the end of 2018.[6] On 16 October 2018, Duryea was traded to the Western Bulldogs.[2]
Duryea re-signed with the Bulldogs for one year on 19 November 2020.[7]
Updated to the end of round 14, 2022.[8]
