Read the thread title. I assumed your retort was based around thinking Lewis could coach.

If it was just to imply I should be nicer because a Hawthorn player won a bunch of flags I really don't care.

I'm only biased on who can and can't help us.

Read the thread title? Mate, you wrote a whole big post just to take cheap shots at the guy. Don't know why people do that so much here, it's embarrassing.

Just have a look at who carried him off after the North game and it will give you some clues...

 

I didn’t see, who did chaired him off?

He has already said he will focus on his media commitments and not coaching.

Thought I read somewhere he also has a wine business???

I’m taking his press conferences and interviews at face value - it seems to me that he has genuine affection for the club, and that he’s really enjoyed this phase of his career, though especially his first two years at the MFC.

Lewis has class. I really enjoyed what he brought to this club - and it seems his older boy seems to love the Dees too.

I expect that a career in the media (which is clearly open to him) will ultimately be far more lucrative for him, and that he’s more stimulated by it. But that’s not to say he doesn’t like the MFC, and the MFC and the players don’t respect him or his massive contribution to the club.

 


I'm still taking advice now and i'm 70 plus....never too zzzzz

Yeah he does. 

Classic D'land.  Retiring great hints to his post playing pursuits ie;  love of media and pursuing his passion for wine making, then someone starts a thread titled 'Assistant Coach?'.

Lewis will seemingly head to media. Probably more lucrative and less time consuming than starting out as an assistant coach. Quite like his media work, more incisive than most retired players turned commentators. The rug is a tad distracting.

I wish I could afford a rug :)

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
