Matthew Lloyd - Mark of the year

[buggermedumplings]

Great mark, as someone had said very similar to Tarrant's in 2001.

It's funny when a great mark gets taken, a buzz goes around the ground, moreso that when a great goal is kicked or a good passage of play.

 

[somocca]

nah lloyd is finished.... suck it up lloyd haters

You played Melbourne for Christ sakes. Keep a lid on it people..

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Yeah they've been practicing that at training all week.

no need to be sarcastic. I take nothing away from the mark at all, all i said was it looked like it had been practiced, and if it had, makes it all the more spectacular

MOTY so far!

Incredible grab. As a few others have said it's similar to Tarrants of 2001.

Fantastic to see Lloyd doing so well. Let's hope he can get to 1000 goals now!

So Lloyd with MOTL and McPhee with GOTY.

 

[The Fireman]

Mark of the year so far.

 

[DonMania#5]

MOTY so far for sure.

 

[Bernie Quinlan]

What a mark! Absolutely sensational. Definitely MOTY so far, no question about it.

 

[Tassie27]

Sensational mark from the old fellow. Great to see him show some great form.

 

[patto_man]

great mark

 

[tazhawk]

A great grab and certainly would be leading the field coming around the bend.

 

[bunsen burner]

I was getting concerned with only 5 rounds to go. There's been no marks so far this year that have been worthy of MOTY. Until this one. If a better one comes along, great, if not, this one is pretty bloody good.

 

[Rave Slave]

Burton's mark >> Lloyd's mark

 

[OzBomber]

All angles.

He's on top of Lonergan's head!!

 

[stugots]

just had a quick read of all replys & the most non-essendon have agreed its moty, so looking good maty

wonder how many goty have been followed the year after by moty? if it happens got to be a 1st, no?

 

[ExTasDeeMan]

I hate him with every fiber of my being. But that was a great hanger. MOTY should be iconic, that was uber iconic.

 

[EFL Boy]

Vintage stuff.

Wasn't as good as all the Essendon supporters are hyping it up to be.
He was on Lonergan's head, but Lonergan was practically on his knees.
If he didn't tumble when he fell, it probably wouldn't have got as much attention.
It's funny how he turns it on twice in 19 weeks and is still touted as a star.
Still better than Rioli's mark.

The guy isn't a star - he's a champion. Is there really a need to play-down his status?

Is it because your team was on the wrong side of a few Lloydy schellackings?

Take a look at McPhee next to him. McPhee's head is at about Lloyds knee level. And McPhee's not a short man.

****ing grinch.

I just picked up the Herald Sun. **** me dead the back page on that shows just how good a mark it was!

 

[the_fresh]

I spose Cyril will now have to be content with the rising star, GOTY, norm smith, premiership and brownlow eh Hawks fans.

Cyrill's was a 100x better.
But then again Lloyd won goal of the year last year for a nothing goal.

Matthew Lloyd>Collingwood Football Club

How's it feel to go through another year of being nothing but "Close, but not close enough". Seems to be a Collingwood tradition.

Why don't you just go on and do it.

[howiehowie]

That was massive.
Back page of the Hun is an amazing photo.
Now if only Essendon like Lloydy can wind back the clock to 2000.

Classic high mark. Enjoy the car, Lloydy.
