Thank you for that. I was trying to get a little clearer sense of both coaches efforts. With or without Lockyer the stats are not outstanding for Hook but it is quite a drop without Locky. No doubt any coach would have a downturn without someone like Lockyer. It makes me wonder how WB went after losing the great Allan Langer, one of the greatest organising half backs. Mind you I consider we lost a lot when Kevvie Walters finished up too.
if you are talking about his 1999 retirement, we actually went better that season without him. considering he "retired" when we were dead last, before our huge winning streak to get us to the finals
