Flooding at Island Bay?

Congrats ...!!! Yes indeed, he has been working hard so its great to see him getting rewarded...Its great news for "Olympic" potentially 3 players on the paddock at the same time for the AWs.... !!!

will be overseas come monday......................

I am sure he will do well there....!!!

Was very good for Wanderers last weekend against Tee Dubs.

Hope the Millwall thing goes well.

Trial with Norwich.

To be fair this is the easiest place to talk about any Kiwi

Would it work better if you dropped "overseas" from the thread title?

Good news. @Clayton_Lewis10 has agreed terms with @SUFCOfficial https://t.co/kjR5TVSzzF @nzheraldsport @NZ_Football

If he is leaving for the UK tomorrow as noted in article, presume he hadn't been picked for AWs given they play in Japan only 7 days later.

This one includes an interview with him

Great news... good to have another Kiwi applying his trade overseas. Hopefully he can break into the first team sooner rather than later.

Fourth Kiwi to play there? Jason Batty, David Mulligan, Rory Fallon and him, any others?

Perry Cotton played there also 33 games (2 goals) from 1988-91

Yes that great news for Clayton. Whenever I have seen him play he looks quality...

I recall him playing for his school as a 13-15 year old and looked extremely advanced for his young years..Was he a product of an Ole early on?

go well Clayton

Do we give some credit to Hudson for this.. picked for the All Whites ahead of a variety of European based pros based on what he saw?

Nope. Product of his own hard work. 

Has done some bits and pieces with Stu Jacobs/Kaizen over the years, but not on a regular basis. 

Any indication of whether he's going to be in or around the first team? Or do they see him as a longer-term project?

I think the fact that it was the manager talking about him, not a youth coach suggests he will be in the 1st team squad.

Very pleased to see him sign! 

He will be in the mix for the first team, not a lot of other attack minded midfielders at the club currently. Seems this deal was on the cards for a while but visa issues have held the deal up.

And my link didn't work, unsurprisingly!

Played most of his junior football up a grade for Miramar.  Then in G13 went to Karori, as Miramar were trying to force him to play in his correct grade.  Then G14 at Onslow when Karori's G13 became Wellington College G14, then St Pat's/Kaizen both with Stu.

No Scodhorpe debut for Lewis this weekend.

really wasn't to be expected

the manager has also said he will take a while to be ready

On the bench overnight verus Fleetwood Town (1-1 draw) but not called upon to debut

on the bench already? encouraging

BMI must be better.

If he can develop and mature he will be an incredibly important part of the NZ side moving forward.

Our future engine of him, Tuiloma and Thomas have a lot of potential.

Unused Sub in a much needed 2-1 win over Peterborough. Currently sitting 8th in the league

Needs to start playing if he wants to be in starting contention for Nov 11

doesn't matter for other players : )

To be fair he only just got there

Scodhorpe beat Oldham 3-2. Lewis not in match day squad.
