to top the thread off, who was, is and will be the better fullback? Locky or Mini? lol
badav said:i cant believe that there are still people talking about lockyer playing fullback . take it from someone who has watched his entire career. he played some of the best footy i have ever seen him play last year as a 5/8th. And he hasnt had any defensive issues at 5/8th for a fair while now. Dallymessanger have you watched him play footy since 2005.
lockyer and thurston compliment eachothers games very well. at the moment thurston is in red hot form and i really dont see any need whatsoever for lockyer to dominate queenslands playmaking.
i also think that lockyer would have to be one of the best halves in the game when it comes to support play and kick chase. he is always there. he scored more tries last year in a premiership winning side than most of the outside backs.
osg said:fair points Badav....... but go back to around 2000-2001 and you'll see what Lockyers best football was........ last year was great, but the accolades come in spades when you win everything on offer, backed up by those around you.
I'm not saying forget last year, but you mentioned to dally that he watched him play since 05......... well i could ask the same thing about you, did you watch Lockyer closely around 2000-2001?
THAT, Badav, was what Lockyer was, and still is to me.
