David Sierakowski (born December 29, 1974) is a former Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League.
The son of former St Kilda Football Club premiership player Brian, David was recruited to the Saints in the 1992 AFL Draft under the father-son rule. He debuted in 1994 after spending the 1993 season in the reserves and became a solid key position player, particularly in defence, for the Saints. He was part of the Ansett Cup winning 1996 side and the 1997 Grand Final side.
Sierakowski, originally from Perth, moved back to his home state in 2001 where his father was a director for the West Coast Eagles. He made his debut for the club in Round 1 of that year but suffered a knee injury, requiring a reconstruction that forced him out of the game until 2002. He returned but struggled to string many games together and retired at the end of 2003.
David now owns and manages a liquor store on Davies Road in Claremont, one of Perth's western suburbs.
