Message: [QUOTE="broncos4life, post: 2406452, member: 7802"] What do you say about someone who the word legend feels like selling him short. In my opinion the greatest player ever, at the very least the greatest player of his generation. A gentlemen off and on the field and a genius with the ball in hand. I can't say thank you enough for the moments and memories that he has provided, I honestly struggle at times to comprehend footy without him. I feel privileged to have witnessed his career and feel saddened to think that my 10 month old son will never be lucky enough to watch him play live. His dedication, toughness, courage and presence is truly inspirational and I don't know if we will ever see someone like him again. One of the greatest things I have witnessed is the respect that they players around him hold for him. Being at his last broncos game and witnessing the 'do it for locky' spirit first hand was truly amazing. In extra time to see the young and the old in Hodges and McGuire running that ball up the middle to get it into field goal range was pure desperation to win that game. McGuire had played an amazing game and his legs must have been just about jelly but you could tell nothing would stop them. Someone on here talked about the hope he brings to a team and that couldn't be more true. It wouldn't matter how bleak the situation was, if locky was on the field there was always hope... You knew that if victory was possible he would find a way. I watched Origin 1 this year with a mixture of QLD and NSW supporters and when NSW were ahead with minutes to go they were celebrating and one of my mates turned to them and said "we'll be right, locky will do something" which he obviously did. That final play was all heart from Matt Scott and pure genius by Locky. Thank you Locky for everything [/QUOTE]
