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

Whilst he can be somewhat of a polarising player on demonland , I’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 there’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.


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.

I’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 hasn’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.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom CampbellĀ with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprenticeĀ Will VerrallĀ who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
