Sam Lloyd joins the Bulldogs for pick 64 [merged]

The fringe Tiger that should be on Carlton's radar

By SEN
20 Aug 2018


Richmond has list depth beyond that of any club in the competition and Sam Lloyd is one of their players struggling to get a regular game.

Lloyd, 28, was given an opportunity on the weekend with a number of senior players rested but Garry Lyon believes Carlton should target the forward/midfielder who has played just 57 for the Tigers games over five seasons.

“I’m a big Lloyd fan. Sam Lloyd mightn’t be in their best 22 because they’re so good, but he should be a big target for an opposition club, he’s too good for VFL footy,” Lyon told SEN Breakfast.

“He should be playing AFL footy.

“At Carlton for example, he would be a walk-up start in their team.”

The Blues have struggled to hit the scoreboard this year, averaging 8.8 goals per game, ranked 17th in the competition and a player like Lloyd could add some bite forward of centre with his finishing ability.

Lloyd kicked 35 goals in 2016 for the Tigers, but has only played 15 games across the last two seasons.

Carlton will have bigger fish to fry in the PSD so Lloyd may have to be traded for.
