Congrats and best of luckĀ to LewyĀ on a massive milestone this weekend !

Whilst he can be somewhat of a polarising player on demonland , Iā€™ve always been grateful that he joined our club, I think what he has providedĀ in experience, leadershipĀ and on field coaching to our younger group has beenĀ invaluable.Ā 

Well done on a stellar career and hopefully thereā€™s at least one more finals campaign in there!!

Ā 

okay not home grown but it is a real milestone and we should be proud that it is occurring while at our club.

For those who question his worth my comment re Jordan and Vince all year has been that their spots are there for the taking by any member of the VFL side.

Congratulations on joining a very exclusive club.

4 x flags

1 x AA

1 x BnF in a premiership year.

Well done and best of luck (even though he frustrates me).

Congrats Lewis!Ā  Ā will stand up in the big games, like he did on Sat night with 30 touches with a high efficiency rate

hearing him speak on 360 last night you could hear how much he is invested in Melb and how much he wants us to be successful

Congrats and well done on the 300 Jordan. A great AFL career to look back on.Ā

Well said D d 82

Hope you have a great game Lewy?

Ā 

Congrats to him.

I reckon the criticism of Lewis has been over the top around here. He does makes 1 bad blue a game, whether it be a turnover or an undisciplined act. However, he ends up playing a solid game week in week out and is always in out best 6-8 players. And he can't help it that he's 32 and lost whatever pace he once had (which from memory wasn't much).

He'd be of massive value to us if and when we ever play a final. While I'd imagine most of our blokes would be running around like headless chooks in the first qtr, he''d provide a massive calming influence to the side.

Probably because most of us hated him at Hawthorn.


Well done Jordan. Thanks for your work so far.Ā 

I hope you play on next year. Your achievements in the game can only benefit all at The MFC

Is Lewis the first Melbourne player to have played 300 games (beside Neitz of course)?

Edited by Chook

As mentioned above, although it's not a 'homegrown' milestone, it's still a significant milestone for both club and player.

Also, aside from Neitz, does anyone know any other 300 game players who have donnedĀ the red and blue? Bit of a rare occurance at this club.

Does Scott Thompson count... ?

For anyone who queries the impact of Lewis on the group, have a listen to this week's Inside Melbourne podcast and listen to what Brayshaw says about him.

Lewis was, and remains, a fantastic pick up for this club.

I love seeing him in the red and the blue. I hate reading some of the carp about him here.

We were super lucky to land the bloke. Especially given we traded a pack of stale Cheezels to get him.

What would Brayshaw know.

Was about to post this. Also on YouTube soĀ you can see as well as hearĀ he sincerity when he speaks.

Iā€™m not claiming to beĀ his biggest fan butĀ Lewis is not getting the appreciation and respectĀ he deserves from many of our supporters.Ā 

As good as it would beĀ to see Nathan Jones hold up 1 finger after a Grand Final, it would be just as sweet to see Jordan Lewis hold up five.

It could be less than 3 months away. It could also never happen.

The challenge is there. Make history Demons.

Congratulations on a fantastic career to date and 300 games this weekend. Still another chapter to write to a decorated career!Ā 

To think many here queried the 3 years contract, and frankly still do. Shame.

He hasnā€™t really disappointed in nearly 2 years - not just on the field - but the impact off the field for the Club among players and coaching group.

Nice tribute video, check out his son singing Grand OldĀ Flag at the end

http://m.afl.com.au/video/2018-07-27/old-mates-pay-tribute-to-jordy-for-300

Great tribute. Glad his little bloke knows the words to the best team song in the AFL. ā¤ļø?

Ā 

When he left Hawthorn he had played 12 years of football for 4 premierships.

Clearly he had done the maths when he signed a three-year contract.

Glad to have him at our club. Getting him was one of those moments that change the mood of the club, a little drop of medicine for MFCSS. And is Angus says he's priceless, that is good enough for me.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullartonā€™s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Caseyā€™s three matches and, with Melbourneā€™s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next weekā€™s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forwardā€™s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasnā€™t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the teamā€™s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourneā€™s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season.Ā There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight.Ā Since that game, the Demonsā€™ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where theyā€™ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ā€˜G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sundayā€™s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
