Following the retirement of Justin Bennison at AFL Level, Jordan Andrews (VFL) and Donna Brown (WAFL) are currently the Riddell Umpires most successful boundary umpires.

Jordan started his umpiring career at the Riddell Umpires is 2007 as a skinny teenager that could run like the wind. In his first year he umpired the RDFL Reserves Grand Final which was an outstanding achievement. In 2008 he went one step better and umpired the Senior RDFL Grand Final. He then backed up this achievement in 2009, what would be his last year with the Riddell Umpires. Jordan umpired 79 games of which 50 were senior games. 

Jordan was nominated to trial with the VFL in 2010 and was succesful on getting himself a place on the list. In his first year he was nominated for the Frank Leverett Shield (Best First Year Umpire). In 2011 Jordan umpired his first grand final, the TAC Cup. In the same year he won the VFL Most Improved Boundary Umpire - Senior Squad. In 2012, Jordan umpired the Victorian Football League vs Tasmanian State League representative match. He also umpired the AFL Development League Grand Final. In 2013 Jordan again umpired the TAC Cup Grand Final.

The Riddell Umpires are proud of Jordan's achievements at VFL level and wish him well in 2014. We hope that the VFL Senior Grand Final is just around the corner because we all know how much you deserve it.
