Lewis played for Fitzroy from 1980 to 1981, and returned to the side in 1983.[2] Lewis attempted to play for Richmond in the 1984 season, but Fitzroy gained an injunction from the supreme court on the grounds that he was still tied to Fitzroy.[3] Lewis was recruited by North Melbourne for the 1985 season, but played only one game before leaving VFL football at the end of the season.
