Darren Lockyer

[rnabokov]

With our 2 major game breakers in doubt for at least say 6 matches - Hodges out till Rnd 20, and Lockyer - well, who knows when the dice man will be back to play a solid 80 minutes of footy game after game, and, with Bennett singing the same old song about player selections... like the team against the Raiders: where's Hoffman? Where's Eastwood? Stagg at 5/8?

And despite my earlier posts about Ennis's class, his recent performances on field and re. contracts suggest he's more an egomaniac than a true team player. Hope he proves me wrong.

Nevertheless, I reckon we're in for a real hard time for the rest of this season.

Again, I hope I'm proved wrong, in which case I'll glad pay Hammo the $100 wager we've made.

I don't think you've forecasted the changes that will ultimately be made in the latter part of the season. I'm quite certain that WB is not going to be persisting with the current line up especially in the finals.

Ah don't get yourself in a twist with this self-fulfilling prophecy rnab! [icon_lol1.

I agree we're a good chance of making it through to the GF if Lockyer comes back in about a months time. Those 2 tries we scored against Parra to put us out at 26-18 (i think) were vintage broncos, that long ball Ennis threw to Hodges was magic, and the various touches Locky had towards the end proves to me we're a real chance if the key players can remain injury free in the run up to the finals

Lockyer has that real awareness on the field now, sort of like what Johns had in the last few years of his career

Well, we actually have a pretty "easy" run to the finals too, have you seen the last few games? Only play 2 current top 4 teams, and a lot of hit/miss teams in between....shouldn't be too hard for us to win more than our share with or without locky.

Who was our 5/8th in the early rounds when Lockyer was injured? We won quite a few games then....

Stagg.

We had wallace as no.7 though.

There is a rumour going around on ABC radio today that Darren Lockyer has suffered another injury and is considering retiring.

Can anyone confirm this?

 

[Bucking Beads]

If it is true we better be signing a 5/8th quick smart I can't handle anymore Stagg in the 6 lol. I hope it is all a sick joke because Lockyer is a champion player and top bloke. He deserves to reitre after lifting the world cup above his head.

No - but I am pissed off that he didn't rest his knee until after Origin 3, and then made a slow come-back for the run to the finals.

And I am equally pissed off that Hodges's brain explosion cost his team 6 matches without possibly the best centre in the game.

He deserves to retire knwoing that he didn't ruin the chances of his club team mates being involved in another Premiership.

Stuff his rep footy, it's causing more problems for him than it's worth at the moment.

Strong rumour I heard again this morning........see the only option is to give Moon an extended chance. I would have liked to see us sign Travis Burns, but he's playing like a busted....

Nooooo!!! With Carroll already retiring if Locky goes too there'll be no-one left in the team older than me!
