Player Bio

At a Glance

Player Honours: -
Brownlow Medal: 2017 votes 6; career votes 6. 
Previous AFL Club: Adelaide (2011-16, 55 games, 32 goals)
Junior Club: St Peter's (VIC)/ Sandringham U18s 
Draft History: 2010 NAB AFL Draft 4th round selection (Adelaide) No. 61 overall; 2016 NAB AFL Draft traded by Adelaide for No. 44 (Myles Poholke), No. 62 (Matt Signorello).

Potentially one of the most underrated players in the entire competition, Lyons has been outstanding for the SUNS since coming across from Adelaide in 2016. Last year the midfielder averaged 25 disposals in his 18 games and received six Brownlow Medal votes.

Lyons wins plenty of contested ball and is adept at finding teammates by hand or foot in close quarters. While he’s not the quickest on the field, Lyons more than makes up for it with his footy smarts and good decision-making. The 25-year-old is set to take on more responsibility in the midfield this year under new coach Stuart Dew.
