Where are all the people who said Lloyd was overpriced and wouldn't back it up? :P

Very glad I started him. 68 touches first two weeks, and doesn't waste them. SC gold

+1 :)
I said that, but guess what I picked him anyway. I decided that with a cheap defence with Smith at D3 I needed 1 premo to anchor the line.
I hated not having Lloyd last year, and my gut said just ignore the price and lock in the best.

So, having watched the Swans last night, their strategy of setting up everything from half back and going sideways will see them miss the 8 by a long way. Is Horse a good enough coach to identify that and change it? If he is, will that eventually hurt Lloyd? Right now, their game style guarantees Lloyd a 110+ every single week so, assuming it won't change, I'll need to jump on board asap.

They will chip it around half back which will see Lloyd have a nice floor. It's why he has dropped below 70 twice in the last two years and one of them has been the concussion game. I still think he is overpriced and if he has a couple of those mid 70's games in a row that will be the time to jump on. You just have to hope it's not late in the season when teams start tagging him and it happens a little earlier.

He is also averaging 34.5 disposals and 10 marks as a half back flanker. That's not sustainable. Laird opened the season last year with back to back 40 touch games and averaged 32 for the year. It will likely come back to 30 and 6

drastic measures, but I've worked out next weeks operation get Lloyd in trade already and I like it. A third ruckman and Ridley becomes Lloyd and rookie.   8)

Who is the 3rd ruckman...? If it’s Grundy, Gawn or Hoff, you’re probably better off keeping

Yeah he got his touches when GWS were dominating the early part of the game

Is it worth trading out M.Crouch > Butters and Hore (if he doesn't come back) > Lloyd?

M.Crouch is my M6 (went way to heavy in the mids) have Constable sitting on the bench.

Or going Heeney via Moore > Lloyd?

Only ways I can think of getting the seagull into my team.

Not worth losing either of those guys for him.. Just wait until he scores a 70 odd and his price drops, then jump on.

He is already top priced though, so might as well wait till a rookie fattens, then you grab him at his starting price still at worst.
