Re: Welcome Sam Lloyd
His fitness has improved drastically and it looks like he will be fit enough to not be a defensive liability.
And now that he could share the fwd line with a defensive manic like Morris then a pairing of Sammy and Steve up forward could complement each other.

Re: Welcome Sam Lloyd
Lloyd lambert Mcdonough all belong together (small rover forward) but gordon is more like deledio's height isn't he?

Re: Welcome Sam Lloyd
Interesting situation this one is.
Gordon has the runs on the board after last season and he is quite physcial can Lloyd match that ? Can Lloyd run all day like Gordon ? Can Gordon kick "bags" of goals like Lloyd ?
Lloyd also has a trick we haven't seen yet and that is he can take massive hangers.
Morris can run all day and is physcial but cannot do any of the other things which begs the question why the heck would he play forward. Both Lloyd and Gordon are more dangerous as forwards and it is easier to teach chase than goal sense.
Maradona is another thing all together as he is not physical, cannot run, can kick apparently but not a high flyer this leaves him trailling the others.
So in order I reckon it should Lloyd, closely followed by Gordon, fair distance (due to development) McDonut and then another kilometre or so back is Morris.
The way it will pan out is Morris - lock, Gordon - lock, Lloyd emergency and Mcdonuts VFL.

Re: Welcome Sam Lloyd
So am I ToO.
He performed well against a few of the better sides in the comp with a limited fitness base.
Now that this has improved, I think he'll surprise a few.

Re: Welcome Sam Lloyd
That's the thing Tommy.
Bottom line is he knows how to play.
This footy nomad has kicked a heap of goals in the ammos but he's never been exposed to elite training in the way he would have been the past 18 months.
Fitness is one of the easiest things to improve & I'm expecting a big year from Slippery Sam.

Re: Welcome Sam Lloyd
Agree, some real upside to Sam.
Reckon he'll be a lock for small/medium forward ahead of Morris, Gordon and Plugger pretty quickly this year.

Re: Welcome Sam Lloyd
He's got some tricks.
Compensates for Morris' traits better than Gordon does too.
