[Poida]

lol i hate to say it but us queenslanders will have to think that way a bit. i dont think locky will be round in 2008. if he is then good but i think qld will have to start lifting their game without him

[~Wild Child~]

[Poida]

queensland can and shall win if they gotta play without him

Yeah I think you have a point ...but I can't even imagine a Qld team with out Locky

[Poida]

Yeah I think you have a point ...but I can't even imagine a Qld team with out Locky

the thing is how can we be sure locky will play 2007 series . he may get injured or might hang the boots up.
we gotta prepare for that possibility

Yeah very true, but over the years the Maroons have gradually become less dependant on just Locky, which is good for the future. It's not like they can't win without Locky now.
