For winning the award on SEN Morning show today for being the biggest actor in the comp

Not only did he win, but he won in a landslide.

lloyds acting is a blight on our great game. Its embarrassing and he should be rubbed out for it, he brings the game into disrepute


The worst thing is, he is a good enough footballer that he doesnt need to act like he is after an Academy Award. This makes him look even more foolish and sets a shocking example for the youngsters who look up to him

The worst thing is, he is good enough and doesnt need to act to get free kicks, which makes himself loo even more foolish and sets a shocking example for the youngsters who look up to him

Lloyd 3 Colemans

Neitz 1 Coleman.

Just accept that Neitz is inferior!!:rolleyes:

In soccer you can get a yellow or red card for acting, in the AFL you should have free kicks awarded against you for acting. It would quickly stop some of them when they give away three or four free kicks in a match.
free kicks or fines, but until while its legal why not do it? ps, complete over reaction yze
 
meh u CAN get yellow carded for diving in soccer... but how often do they give it... plus we have enough problems trying to decide what the rules are with the current interps rather than trying to judge frees for diving...
 
Where a player who has been pushed in the back, dragged around the neck etc exaggerates it the tendency these days is for the umpire to completely ignore it, which is good. However Lloyd, and to a lesser extent Alistair Lynch, tend to get these decisions. It is a blight on our game and should be stamped out. I like the idea of a free kick against the player who overacts.

rubbish to single out these players. you may notice these players more because you dislike them but if you look more objectively you'll see its much more widespread than just these 2. and that they're not the worst

Actually it stands out as when they get the kicks they result in goals. I have used these two as examples for this reason only.

Nah, you just never give him free kicks unless he gets decapitated. i.e:

Lloyd falls over.
Umpire: 'Get up Lloydy, you took a f**king dive'.

Unfortunately the umpires are either too thick or want an invite to a BBQ at his place, so they keep rewarding his staging. While he's getting rewarded for it, why wouldn't you keep doing it?
 
The media tends to highlight Lloyds more than other players in the game.

While I agree there is a problem and he takes too many dives, he is not the worst of them by any means.

Brent Harvey is easily worse than Lloyd.
 
If the umpires had any sort of idea they would simply put the whistle away until he starts playing footy. Of course we all know that Hirdy would get upset if that happended and we don't want that.

Essendon are the biggest sooks in the AFL, from the coach to the players they never stop whineing.
