Lloyd posted 43 in Sydney's 6-point home win over Collingwood — 9 below his 52 BE in a game where Sydney had every advantage at the SCG in a tight contest. He looked cooked out there, and with multiple Sydney insiders calling for his axing alongside other struggling veterans, the writing is clear. Cash gen is -$3,172/wk, average is 64 at $353.1k, and this is now the third time he's failed to clear BE in five rounds. Sell this week before the price corrects further.

Community Intel· T3
Jake Lloyd described as looking absolutely done in Swans vs Collingwood match. Multiple calls to drop him alongside Melican and Bice. Described as useless and a membership-cancelling performance. Contradicts the positive season trend from the Lyon article.
Role Change· T3
Jake Lloyd transitioned from defender to wing then to forward - averaging 1.2 goals per game in the last 6 weeks. Role experiment working under Cox. Garry Lyon highlights as improvement from within.
