Darren Lockyer - what a magnificent career.
Wonder if the Broncos will recruit someone to take his place.
In an ideal world, I'd love to see Quade Cooper in Broncos colours.
He'd be a revelation - not sure we could afford him though...and he is managed by Khoder Nasser.

And he can't tackle at all.
Lockyer - has any player ever won so many games for their team in the last five minutes of play? What a player he's been.

Bennett announces he's leaving the Dragons at the end of the year. I wonder if that will lift or deflate them this year. I guess it might depend on who they announce as a replacement.
Broncos and Knights seem to have the inside running for Bennett's signature. Probably Newcastle, but mentoring his good mate Lockyer with the intention to transfer the coaching role when he retires to create a second Broncos coaching dynasty could be motivation. Then again with a guy who always states he's in it for the challenge, there could be any number of clubs he's interested in.

Ind33d. Could mentor the next wave of stars with our junior nursery. Going to be an AFL team in these parts too. If he wants to defend RL's heartland against the invasion that's a great place to make a stand. Most importantly he'd help us win footy games
Cmon Benny, you'll be so close to the 3 sisters and the In reality though you could make an argument case for nearly every club having a case for why Bennett should come to them. Eels for the same reason as Penrith. Souffs to get a historical giant a second wave of success 40 years after their last heyday. Sharks or Cowboys to give them their first premiership. Titans to combat the AFL incursion into GC and help a fledgling club survive in what looks like it will be a couple of lean years for them. He could take a year or two break and come back in 2013-15 when there is rumoured to be expansion clubs entering the comp.
In reality he's probably going to go for money (Newcastle) or personal reasons (Broncos)

Pretty good defensive effort last night including 3 1on1 tackles.
Just try and score a 2nd half try against the Broncos. Just can't be done!

You guys did well, but we were absolutely abject. Our bench consisted of a front rower, a center, a winger and a hooker. Thaiaday came back from a spell and just tore through us.
Matt Elliott has had his ups and downs with this club but he's been horrifically bad in his decisions this year. Our team this week had to be one of the worst selection **** ups I've seen at my club considering who we had available and that's saying something.

The juggernaut stirred last night with a last gasp win over the Cowboys. Well played Luke Burt in breaking the great Brett Kenny's try scoring record.
Couple of great try savers from captain Hindy last night too. Good stuff from him. A desperately needed win.

Would be seriously weird seeing that guy in gold and blue. Good move for Parra though if he's still got it, and the reports I've heard are that he still has. Would be good for Mortimer (as long as he doesn't take him out drinking), and I reckon we might see Morts actually grow as a player if he actually has a real halfback next to him. Gower was as tough as halfbacks come, and you would hope some of that rubs off on a kid. They'd be halfway to a good spine at that point tbh.
Doubt it will happen though. Why would Gower spend all this time in Union only to go back to League months before participating in the pinnacle of his adopted game?
Geez the man could party though.

Heh indeed. If he comes back one of the highlights for me would be seeing him come up against Pearce. I can't imagine they have a particularly high opinion of each other.

I'm a Roosters fan and I'd root for Gower in that blue. What a man he was.
