Lester was offered ongoing 1 year contracts from 2019 until 2022. At the conclusion of the 2022 season, Lester was delisted. However, Fagan brought the defender back in the 2022 rookie draft, and made him captain of the Lions VFL team.

Lester was again dropped in round 11, but would later return to the Lions best 22 in round 14. After his return to the squad, Lester had a career best year. Midway through the 2023 season, Lester signed a one-year contract with Brisbane, keeping him at the Lions until the end of the 2024 season.
