Career highlights

Jordan Michael Lewis (born April 24, 1986) is an Australian rules footballer, currently playing for the Hawthorn Football Club of the Australian Football League. His nicknames are "Taz" and "Chief."

Lewis was voted Hawthorn's best first-year player in 2005. He was a 2005 nominee for the AFL Rising Star award.

On June 11, 2006 Lewis was accused of spitting on Port Adelaide onballer Kane Cornes. Lewis apologised to Cornes after the incident, in which he spat on Cornes' hand. On June 14, an AFL inquiry found that it was unclear whether Lewis had accidentally spat on Cornes, while spitting on the ground, or whether his actions were deliberate. the league declined to impose a penalty and investigations officer John Coburn said: "the fact that Cornes' hand was at his side lent weight to Lewis' claim he was intending to spit on the ground."[1]
