Biography

Lloyd was a superb signing for the ‘Wizards’ in the summer of 2020, scoring a try on his debut. He joined Aberavon from Ebbw Vale where coach Greg Woods was very sorry to see him go, particularly as he was a more-than-useful centre as well as a flanker. He had scored two Premiership tries with Neath before joining Ebbw Vale and scored 11 more Premiership tries whilst with the ‘Steelmen’. He had previously played for the Ospreys Academy, Ospreys (12 games), Bridgend Athletic, Bridgend (41 games, 11 tries from 2011-12 until 2015-16) and the Wales Sevens side. His great rugby brain was shown particularly when he handled twice in the Chay Smith try against Cardiff in March 2020. It showed what Lloyd is all about – a brilliant vision and quick decision-making. It is believed that the ashes of Lloyd’s grandfather were buried under the pitch.
