Sam Lloyd [merged]

[The Machine]

The one thing I would like Lloyd to do more of is rove the packs. Since taking a great hanger a few weeks ago he is flying for everything and this should not be his role in the team. Crumb the packs and use foot skills to effect......cant do that when flying for pack marks constantly. I like what he is providing us this year with improved endurance

he actually plays the hit up/lead up fwd role that the spuds vickery/griff should be playing but are too lazy and stupid to position themselves correctly: ie a kick and half down field to give yourself some space to lead into or a kick downfield at most when its extra congested in our def 50 and you should "know" a quick kick out of the pack is the likely play. But those 2 stufftards have no footy IQ and for some unbeknownst reason our fwd coach(whoever the stuff he is) doesnt seem to be doing anything to rectify this.

So he and dimma are either 1. happy for loyd to play that role(lol) or
2. They want vickery and griff to play it and "coach them each week about it but they dont comply, in which case the coach is a moron anyway for allowing them to get away with it

Hayden ballenyte said he was was a very good mark as a junior

But it's been coached ou of him for te good on the team. So he crumbs and the big guys go for marks

It almost worked too freo were not far if a far

Why is Dimma playing Lloyd a a key forward like he's said several times?

[Chuck17]

Because apart from Jack the others are crud?

Because apart from Jack the others are crud?

We drafted a lead up forward in 2013 with our first pick but we either play him in our backline or in the twos.
Something to do with not being able to defend to well. Makes senses doesn't it.

Just on Sam Lloyd, the last two weeks he has gone back to what he was doing last season. He needs to get on his bike and hit the packs and not try and be on those packs.
A little bit of "me, me, me" in the last couple of weeks IMO.

Cotchin. Jack. Deledio.


Get josh Jenkins 

Not sure where Lloyd and short fit in

[Andyy]

I've said it before.

Much improved. Having a great season and very dangerous around the sticks. Plays a very good lead up role for a small forward.

"It's something you dream of as a kid. Thank god it went through!"

"It was the only one I connected with all night!"

"I knew how long there was because I just came off the bench, so I had fresh legs too"

"It really was a team effort, I just put the cream on top I guess"

[eliminator]

His kick split the middle. Deserves credit for performing under pressure

Can someone tell me what Griff says to Lloyd as he is about to take his kick?


Lloyd mentions it after the siren talking to Ling at about 1:54 in.


 

[Yeahright]

Something along the lines of

"Take 3 deep breaths, go through your routine" Pretty much the gist of it

[Stalin]

Lennon is spewing

[The Machine]

Not many could handle the pressure.......well done young man
