He made his debut in the opening round of the 2015 season in the nine point loss to at Etihad Stadium. In his twelfth match, he recorded eighteen disposals, five inside-50s, three marks, two tackles and a goal in the 110-point win over at Etihad Stadium to earn the round fourteen nomination for the 2015 AFL Rising Star.
During the 2016 season, Lonie was considered to have not played as well as he had in his debut season, as he played only 10 games, spending a large amount of the year playing for the VFL club Sandringham. Despite this, he drew positive attention for a three goal performance in the final round of the year
In October 2018, Lonie signed a two year contract extension with St Kilda, keeping him at the club until at least the end of 2020. During the 2019 season, Lonie's performance against the Western Bulldogs in round 18 was considered impressive.
