Essendon spearhead Matthew Lloyd is aiming to win his fourth Coleman Medal this Sunday when Essendon takes on the Western Bulldogs at The Pressure Cooker. With one game remaining Lloyd trails St Kilda’s Fraser Gehrig by just three goals. But the man himself will be more focussed on an Essendon win which could secure a spot in the top eight.
