Lockyer the Legend

This Sunday I am looking forward to watching Darren Lockyer have his day in the sun as he gets the fan day he deserves on the hallowed ground that is Lang Park.  It will be even greater to see the Broncos smash the Manly whingers.  Lockyer will go down as one the the greatest players of all time and looking at his record it is easy to see why:

He has the record for the most games played, on top of that it is all for the Broncos.
36 games for Queensland in State of Origin - A record.
55 Tests for Australia - Another record

I could go on adding to these stats but rather I will point out impressive.

4 Premierships with Brisbane and 1 more to add this year.
Has won the Golden Boot Award twice, once as a fullback and once as a Five-eighth.
Highest Kangaroo Try scorer.

South of the border they like to think that Lockyer is overrated.  Hard to argue with statistics and records.
If he wore a gay blue jersey they probably would have already made him an immortal.  Bring on statue number two at Lang Park.

Let's get the ball rolling.

Well here it is.  At long last I am finally blogging my sporting views.  My thoughts will be honest, biased and fanatical.  I will point out that I am a passionate Queenslander.  I will always support Australia.  My clubs and sporting teams are and in no particular order.:

All teams that represent Australia.
Queensland - all teams that represent this marvelous state.  Especially the Maroons & Reds.
Brisbane Broncos
Brisbane Lions
Brisbane Roar
Queensland Cricket Team
Liverpool Football Club (Proud Member)
North Bundaberg Football Club (Coach)
North Queensland Cowboys
Gold Coast Titans

There are many more but these are the main ones.  I also passionately despise many teams but you will have to wait for future posts to discover these.
