Essendon legend Matthew Lloyd has listed his top seven small/medium forwards in the AFL right now based on form for Sportsday Radio.

Lloyd has gone with Collingwood star Jordan De Goey as the best player in that position, after his hot start to 2019.

De Goey was the match winner for the Pies in their round two clash with Richmond, kicking five goals.

Despite not featuring for the Giants in the past two rounds, GWS forward Toby Greene is second on the list, with Hawthorn veteran Luke Breust rounding out the top three.

Robbie Gray, Michael Walters, Isaac Heeney and Charlie Cameron complete Lloyd's list, after three rounds of the 2019 season.

Despite a fantastic career, Lloyd can't find room for Eddie Betts in his list, suggesting he's "slid down to 15th" based on his current form.

Betts has just three goals to his name so far this year and is averaging just 11.3 disposals per game, his lowest since moving to the Crows.
