Lower was delisted by Port Adelaide at the end of the 2009 season. After a successful 2010 season for Norwood in the SANFL, where he finished second in the Magarey Medal,[1] he was drafted by Fremantle in the 2011 Rookie Draft.[2]
He played his first two games for Fremantle in a NAB Cup double header against Hawthorn and West Coast on 14 February 2011. After performing well throughout the 2011 preseason, he was elevated to the senior list as a nominated rookie[3] and was named to make his debut for Fremantle in the opening round of the 2011 AFL season against Brisbane at The Gabba.[4]
