[QUOTE="sanzar, post: 130947"] Good riddance you say, to one of the world's best players who is a great ambassador for the game of rugby league and never does any harm to the game, only good. [/b][/quote] A great ambassador? I disagree with you on that one mate. A great player, surely. A good bloke, yes. But a great ambassador? Hardly. An ambassador needs to represent the game positively on all levels, and that includes speaking - a faculty Lockyer is seriously lacking in. He's like Fittler (though I'd argue he's not quite in Fittler's class as a five eighth), a genius on the pitch, but at the post match press conference you just prey they don't let them speak too long because you can barely understand a word they say. You want a great 'ambassador' for Rugby League, then go get Shane Webke - a great player, a top bloke, AND a man who people respected when he opened his mouth. [/QUOTE]
