DCE played one game for Aus in the '11 Four Nations against Wales. Locky was rested for that game.

Wow, so not only is Hunt and Gagai the only guys to play a club game with Lockyer, they are possibly the only players left to play any game with Lockyer.

JWH played 3 club games against him.
DCE played 3 games against Brisbane in 2011 but Lockyer only lined up once.

Would those games have included Foran as well?

Foran played 2 games against Brisbane in 2011 but Lockyer wasn’t in either.

Despite their careers overlapping by 3 years they only played each other once, in 2010.

A few guys just retired like Johnson, Bromwich, and Rapana. Michael Jennings had played a heap with against him. .

I’m not really sure what the purpose of these posts are at this point. Pub trivia I guess

Controversies aside, Jennings debuted in 2007 and retired at the end of 2024. That’s an incredible stint

Townsend and Frizell played against him.

What about ESL players? Any of them play with him?

What about this. Do any current NRL player's kids go to the same school as Lockyer's kids?

RE Lockyer

..............on Wednesday night, the Queensland legend lifted the lid on why the club decided it was time for Walters to depart.

Kevin Walters failed to make the finals in three of four seasons in charge of the Broncos.

Lockyer revealed the club's hierarchy were "alarmed" at how far they had fallen in 12 months, plummeting to 12th on the ladder in 2024 after making the grand final last year. The club felt it was "not acceptable" to miss the finals so badly considering their star-studded roster with the likes of Reece Walsh, Payne Haas, Ezra Mam, Patrick Carrigan, Selwyn Cobbo and Kotoni Staggs.

“’Kevvie’ is a great bloke and that’s what makes it so difficult,” Lockyer said. “It’s not pleasant at all when you have to move on a legend of the game. He was also five minutes away from winning the grand final last year if it wasn’t for Nathan Cleary.

“This year at the back end of the year the team fell away significantly. The call was made based on the playing talent that is there at the Broncos, which there is plenty of."

but unfortunately Darren, it was sitting on the sidelines for most of the season injured or unavailable to play.

Goes to show how long ago that was. JYY was 21 at the time and would be retiring about now...

sad timeline we are in to not have him play his full career potential, he was our next Hodges.
