Lloyd may hang up the bootsJake Niall | September 15, 2009
ESSENDON captain Matthew Lloyd is leaning towards retirement, with the forward having privately indicated his time at Windy Hill is almost certainly up.
While Lloyd has not ruled out a shift to another club for one or two years, retirement is the more likely option, and it is clear that, at this stage, the full-forward does not see a role for himself at Essendon in 2010.
Lloyd is understood to have told teammates over the weekend that he did not think he would play on with Essendon next year. He spent Saturday and Sunday with several teammates on a buck's weekend for senior teammate Mark McVeigh.
