lloyd out

Could be but dont read too much into him not doing a full session yesterday
He is still carrying a corky so he is in doubt.

Watch out for Mr. Sheedy's last minute inclusion !

 

[dave_27]

To be honest Im not too fussed.

We've still got a quality KP forward in Lucas and Johns will have an opportunity at FF to monster whatever twerp Hawthorn decide to man up on him.

 

[DonMania#5]

He'll play

 

[bring it on]

definately not believeing it


i have seen this thread on here before each round for the last 3 weeks and he has played each week... a load of BS

Yep, me too would also give Houli/Lonergan a go.

Had to pass a fitness test to play Anzac day.
Turned up to the Bendigo v Port game sporting his MRI scans in a big envelope.
Didnt train Monday.
Didnt do any contact work at training yesterday and left the track early.
Now the lack of training isnt unusual for him during the season and he looked to be moving ok during all the other drills.
Personally i think there is a minor doubt on him.

 

[tockley]

i know there has been crap about lloyd for the last couple but he wont play and will probaly mis the kangas game as well.Not good but we should be right for those 2 games hoping johns can fire up

 

[stander]

He'll play

A lazy day in the forward pocket is all the Dons need anyway against the show pony wannabe tough hawks anyway.

Dont think he will miss the North game but this week , well there is some doubt.

 

[mcphee_is_a_gun]

Watson being dropped stinks of sheedy playing mind games, I feel he'll be the late inclusion if necessary.

You mean the same Sheedy you started a thread about calling him a liar?

[Astute Observer]

I can tell you 100% that he was in doubt at 11:00am on Anzac Day and was unlikely to play at that stage - so certainly no B.S last week.

Was thinking the same thing myself.

 

[thebigboy]

He'll play.

 

[ManWithNoName]

He didn't look right on ANZAC Day. Every time he went to ground he came up wincing and holding his arm/wrist.

 

[bomberstomake8]

hang on so the fact that some of you are saying lloyd definately wont play is based on the fact he didnt do full training this mourning????

thats pathetic

Looks like the OP was correct

Bombers lose Lloyd to hamstring injury
Jake Niall and Rohan Connolly

ESSENDON skipper Matthew Lloyd has injured a hamstring and will miss tomorrow's game against Hawthorn.

Club sources last night confirmed that Lloyd had strained the same left hamstring that kept him out of the last 19 games of 2006.

While scans were done yesterday and the injury was still being assessed, the expectation was that the hamstring problem was relatively minor, but it is still likely to keep him out for at least two matches.

Lloyd's history of having had major surgery to the hamstring in his left leg — he had an operation to repair the hamstring he tore off the bone in round three last season — means the Bombers will be conservative with their 29-year-old captain.

The club still hopes that it will prove less severe than a grade-one tear — which usually takes two to three weeks to heal — and might only be categorised as soreness.

Lloyd was last night named at full-forward, but will be replaced by Courtney Johns, who is named on the interchange bench.

It is unclear precisely when Lloyd hurt the hamstring. He took a severely corked thigh into the Anzac Day match which required treatment in a hyperbaric chamber. Although his movement was somewhat restricted, he still managed to boot three goals.

One of the Bombers' emergencies — Jobe Watson, Bachar Houli or Sam Lonergan — will come into the team. Watson and Kepler Bradley had been dropped from the team, with experienced midfielder Jason Johnson named to play his first senior game this season.

Johnson, who had a pre-season toe injury, has been in outstanding form for Bendigo Bombers in the VFL since his return. Defender Andrew Welsh returns from a hamstring strain, as does important speedster Jason Winderlich.

****. I'd like to see Lonergan get a go this week.

 

[DaSawx]

who were emergencies?

 

[DapperDon]

I'd like to see anyone other than Jobe or Kepler get up for this week.

My money is on Bacher, he just hapened to be on the footy show this week.......
