		"Darren Lockyer this year has become the captain that I think everyone always knew he could," Webcke declared after the world class No.6 orchestrated the third biggest finals comeback in premiership history against a shattered Bulldogs on Friday night.
		Lockyer's magnificent second half display gives Webcke the opportunity to end his career with a premiership victory next Sunday - something the big front-rower dared not contemplate before the stunning 37-20 comeback win.

		WON IT AGAIN: Brisbane Broncos legends Shane Webcke and Darren Lockyer with the NRL trophy after their team beat the Melbourne Storm in the final.
		Darren Lockyer had a superb match for the Broncos, setting up their two tries and secured the victory with a drop goal late in the game.
		The Storm may look back on a tiring second half, a crucial injury to captain and Daly M winner Cameron Smith and some bad referring calls that cost them the championship, but the Broncos were the better side as they made the most of their opportunities and were tenacious in defence.

		Skipper Darren Lockyer led the way early, scoring the opening try after just 10 minutes when he jinked off his left foot and charged through a gap, reaching out to score.
		And when Lockyer miraculously trapped a Hodges bat back on his knees, then picked up, sliced through and kicked ahead for 2nd game rookie Steve Michaels to score, it looked like a record thrashing was on the cards.
		However, Lockyer's conversion hammered off the posts and as it was that symbolised the end of the Broncos' pointscoring.

		Lockyer was given an early mark by Brisbane coach Wayne Bennett with the home side well in control midway through the second half, and later said he was only just getting used to playing with the former St George Illawarra hooker Ennis.
		"Locky is allowed to slot back and play his game, which has been a bit of an issue for the past couple of years because he's been trying to carry everyone and make all of the calls," he said.

		Despite the fact that Lockyer was ultimately part of the losing team it was clear he was the dominant player on the park.
		Should the form Lockyer has shown this season and particularly in the past few weeks continue he should once again be talked about in the same sentence as the greats of the game.

		Darren Lockyer is overated, but so are most five-eigths at the moment.
		Ok he missed a few games due to injury, but look at the Knights record with out him, 0-14, then he comes back, and took them to 8-2 (or what ever it was), also dont forget he lead NSW to State Of Origin victories in Game 2 and 3, and the series win too.

		AUSTRALIA's captain Darren Lockyer believes the sight of players standing over an injured opponent cheering is unacceptable and damages the game's image.
		Lockyer described the footage of New Zealand backrower David Kidwell yelling at an injured Willie Mason following a fierce shoulder charge in Saturday night's Test in Auckland as a "bad look".
		While happy for players to rally behind a big hit by one of their team-mates, Lockyer said it was poor taste to applaud and backslap a tackle which left an opponent injured.
