I confess to not knowing of him. After reading this article by Emma Q

http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/with-a-little-help-lewis-taylors-star-starts-rising-20140903-10c1f7.html

I think he is a great human being. That he can play footy is a bonus.

For a young man (boy of 16) say to his mother: "...that he loved her, but that she had to earn his respect back after he found out she had taken money from his bank account..." is awesome. To take a stand on a moral issue takes great courage. If I had a daughter this is the sort of guy I would want for her: One that understands respect. The odds were all stacked against him and he will make it. Good on you, Lewy! You deserve it.

On this one article he has earn't my respect and I will keenly follow his career.

    Show how much the Demons have destroyed my interest in (the) sport - I deadset do not know who this bloke is.

    This is how good Lewis Taylor is, Aish will always play second fiddle to him.

    And I think Aish will be a superstar.

    Completely agree.

    Taylor was one of those kids (like Wines) that you just weren't sure if he'd be able to replicate his stellar play against men at the next level, but he's gone out there without skipping a beat.

    Kids like this are the ones we desperately need to be picking up, not that I'm unhappy with JKH... But he'll never be a star the likes of Lewie Taylor.

    Perpetual motion, moving the footy with precision, great decisions... He's amazing to watch.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
