Lockyer's End-of-Career Autobiography
by Random House Australia on 7 July 2011
A Brisbane Broncos, Queensland and Australian representative, Lockyer has played in the top grade for 17 years – literally half his life. Named one of League’s top 100 Players of all time in 2008, he has played the most games for Queensland, is the highest try scorer for the Kangaroos, and by seasons end, injury withstanding, will have played more club games than any other player in Rugby League history. He has won the Clive Churchill medal, Dally M medals and has captained the Broncos, Queensland and Australia in this amazing career.
In this book Lockyer, for the first time, opens up on the people, places, incidents and events which have shaped the life and career of an Australian sporting icon. From his days growing up and working at the family-owned truck stop on the outskirts of the tiny Queensland town of Wandoan, to his arrival at the Broncos as a teenage sensation and subsequent ascension toward rugby league immortality, this book will shed new light on some of the biggest names and stories of the past two decades.
Featuring contributions from Lockyer's family and friends, as well as legendary figures like Wayne Bennett, Wendell Sailor, Andrew Johns, Mal Meninga, Johnathan Thurston, Gorden Tallis, George Gregan, Ricky Stuart and Craig Bellamy, this book will provide readers with a rare insight into Lockyer the player, the leader and the man.
PLUS reversible cover designed especially for Broncos’ fans!
