The Importance of Jordan Lewis

Featured Replies

Sent an important email to his team mates last monday

He will be invaluable over the next 12 days...

 

If he didn't know how to tap the ball to the advantage of his teammates when he falls to ground or is outpaced by his opponent, he'd have finished up years ago. He's good at that though, and combined with his good game sense, off-field leadership and occasional smart ball use he's s handy player for us for sure.

Nice if he gets to a Hodge at Lions and poke Hawks in the eye with a burnt stick

 

Talk is, Jordan sent a group email to the player group after last weeks win, to reign the group back into line and get them to focus on the bigger picture being finals.

Was quite evident today the player reaction after the win was extremely subdued, especially compared to last week.

This is the exact reason the club recruited him...to assist the team heading into a finals campaign...

Possibly the first Email 90% of our list has ever gotten too.

Might make a half decent coach one day.

Measured, resolute and focussed.

Hope he hangs around our joint for a while.

On top of the email he sent apparently he stood up and did the after game meeting for the boys. It's clear he's trying to control the mindset of the group.

He was as solid as a rock again today. More than you could say for Jones. If it comes down to a decision between Lewis or Jones next season with an Andrew Gaff coming into the midfield, I'd be going Lewis almost every time. He rarely makes mistakes.

Just so important for the younger players, the Brayshaws, Olivers, Harmes, Fritschs. THIS is what teams like Hawthorn and Sydney (especially) have had through all these years - and we haven't. By the time Lewis moves on, we'll have established a Melbourne way of doing things, the kind of tough, take no prisoners, nose to the gindstone, just get the job done, ownership approach that characterises successful teams.

IMV, can't overestimate enough his contribution to what we're seeing now.


Whether Lewis is considered valuable or not will be determined in the next 2-3 weeks, where he will play against the best players/coaches where the speed is on and stakes are highest.

If he loses his feet, and gets caught lagging, allowing Duncan 3 easy goals in the last half of an elimination final; thereby throwing us out, the glowing tributes will about-face here quickly...again.  Then all we will hear is the intangibles of emails and leadership.

Just enjoy the ride TG... he has been valuable over the last part of the season, he appears to be directing the playing ground to a focused and hopefully successful finals series.

Jesus you really are a happy contented soul aern’t you. The MFC just made the finals for the first time in 12 years, and are being mentored on and off field by a 4 time Premiership Winner. 

And you cannot wait for him to fail...

Whatever happens in the next 4-5 weeks, the recruitment of Jordan Lewis has been a superb decision. 

You cannot buy his experience online or in a shop

Went to the game yesterday, with a mate who is Hawthorn supporter. He also played VFL. 

His comment as we were leaving the ground "Gee, I would love to have Lewis in our backline next month"

That was enough for me.


Lewis would be coming into his element... Hello old friend ( finals ). Here his experience in invaluable.

We often talk about leadership , well here it is. " Welcome to finals footy fellow Dees. ....   and this is what we do...follow me"

We're lucky to have him going into September.

Agree  bb   Now is the time! This is what he was recruited for fantastic for our group to have him there playing.Very very important cog in the finals team.

Lewis' game yesterday was excellent. Mind you the game seemed to be played at a moderate pace which I am sure helped him.

Well worth his spot in the side.

Yeah, and if he kicks 5 we will win and he will be amazing.

No point getting upset about a hypothetical situation.

You've come a long way SWYL.. I'll be honest and say usually id expect you to be trotting out the negative line. #daretodream

Good to see your positivity old mate! ?

Dazzle i have only EVER wanted September Finals

My negativity has always stemmed from a club that previously happily accepted honourable losses occasionally and the odd win

until recently i have been concerned with Goodwin’s defensive game plan, but Frosty has certainly lowered my blood pressure count, he is a wild bull, who will make the odd mistake, but he also may hold Hawkins to 1-2 goals. 

I take Goodwin at his word. It is his job to prepare 22 blokes for a 2 hour battle, Lewis has won 4 flags, Goodwin 2 Flags. 

Let’s see how much this young talented, but still erratic bunch of kids can soak up in the next 10 days

we can smash Jeelong IF we play as a single unit...

I do not get your hatred for Jones.

The bloke stuck with us when he had every right to chase success somewhere, all the while being a bloody good player in the process.

I think he's doing exactly what we needed him for right now. I'd be a little concerned without his composure in the back half.

I don't hate Jones. He seems like a really good bloke and I applaud him for sticking with us when times were extremely tough, but he's just about done. Even when we were flying yesterday he was fumbling and failing to execute.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
