Lloyd Well Past Best

[Roberiquez]

hey im a essendon supporter. and i think your wrong ther mate. franklin will b one of the best players u will see. and sorry yeh he will go past lloyd. franklin is havin like 12 shots on goal every week he is unreal

I don't know about that thomo - i hope so though (of course).

One thing is for sure though - Lloydie was a champion in his own right. An amazing footballer with precision accuracy at goal.

I think Franklin is an A-class showman

No, I like watching essendon play (exciting team) and think theres potential there. I just noticed a deficiency in your forward line (as did many bomber fans) and floated some ideas. Its not bay13 so please don't insult me anymore.

Huh? He came second in the coleman, and if you include finals, kicked more goals then anybody else! Lloyd aint getting possies or goals...

This topic isn't about Lloyd vs Franklin.

You noticed a deficiency based on a few bad games from Lloyd who's had a limited pre season due to a hammy and has had a calf problem the last 2 weeks.

Campbell Brown had a bad game on the weekend and got toweled up. You calling for his head yet?

u do think that but everyone at hawthorn are keepin a lid on him. yeh lloydie has been a champ. but franklin can do everything. and he has the tank to run all day. the only thing that could stop franklin is injury and if he goes of the rails off field and that could happen

So kelvin - in your opinion how many more weeks would you give lloyd to recover and pick up his game before suggesting he retire? Chronic injuries can of course play a big part (ie. buckley) in terms of career prospects...

Brownie has had one forgettable game not 4 on the trot...

Thomo it'll be interesting to see what magic he weaves against richmonds defence. I don't need to say it but even against champs like your fletcher and mcphee he was an unstoppable machine. I rate them both.
Gotta agree with most folk you can't stop the man, but you can limit the supply.

Its the boyish smile and exuberance that gets the people behind him i reckon. He does something good, smiles at the crowd and the crowd roar!

He hasn't had 4 forgettable games on the trot.

He kicked 6 in Round 1 and 4 in Round 3, those performances are fine by me.

Round 2 and 5 have been forgettable.

In fact, Round 1 was memorable, he was terrific.

Don't write off a champion, especially when he's not travelling anywhere near as badly as people like to think.

Mate,

There are many other places for you and your Franklin wankfest.

In actual fact every other part of BF has turned into a Franklin wankfest so please don't turn our board into one.
