Matthew Lloyd, whose full name is Matthew James Lloyd, was born on 16 April 1978 and is a former professional Australian rules footballer who played for the Essendon Football Club in the Australian Football League. A highly decorated full-forward, he is the eighth all-time leading goalkicker in VFL and AFL history, won three Coleman Medals as the league's leading goalkicker, and took both the Mark of the Year and Goal of the Year awards. He was selected five times in the All-Australian team, represented Victoria three times in State of Origin football and played twice for Australia in International Rules football. With 926 goals from 270 games he holds Essendon's career goalkicking record, and the club's leading goalkicker award was renamed the Matthew Lloyd Medal in his honour.
