IIRC he had 3 years to show something but failed to show much at all.

Had one good game I recall where he kicked 7 but mostly was second fiddle to McMahon who hasn't played a game for Essendon this year.

Lemmey was supposed to have signed with West Adelaide this year but I can't see he's played a game with them.
.

Noticed a report pre season in local media that Harry Lemmey was heading off to USA to try out for college football.    Presumably as what they call a 'punter'.

That would explain his absence from the West Adelaide list.

The Aussie NFL punters are getting bigger and taller, literally. Taylor, Fletcher, they are all Sav sized or taller. Modern talls are so much more agile than the 6'6" types of the past. NFL Punters use to be agile 6fters, they thought bigger guys would be too slow to get a kick away. It's all changed, but even so I'm not sure Lemmey fits the bill.

Just reported in AFL website that ISON will debut this week.
The Ox is slow but I'm running out of patience.

Harry Lemmey's delisting looks weirder by the day.

From what I had seen he wasnt to be persisted with, but in the frame of playing him vs Derkson...

Lemmey had 1 game where he kicked 7, with is the '1 game' Lods was referring too.
However, from the 16 games he played in 2025, he managed 31 goals (1 goal short of 2 goals a game). Thats an upgrade on anything we have currently, and hardly 'one-game'.

But yes, instead we train a guy up as backmen, then try and turn him into a forward.....who hasn't got as many runs on the board.  ::)

We're not training up a backman to be a forward. ::)
He's as much a forward as he is a defender.
Derksen kicked 35 goals for GWS in the VFL in 2023.
