Biography: Darren Lockyer was born in Brisbane, Queensland, and is an Australian professional rugby league player and current captain of the Brisbane Broncos, Australian Kangaroos sides and the Queensland Maroons. Widely considered one of the finest players in the modern game, Lockyer has played more games and scored more points for the Brisbane Broncos than any other player in the club's history.
Lockyer currently plays in the five-eighth position, having moved there from his previous position of fullback in 2004. Upon switching positions, Lockyer endured heavy criticism, but responded in 2006 with arguably his finest ever season, becoming the first person since Allan Langer (a former teammate) to captain winning teams in the National Rugby League premiership, the State of Origin series, and the Tri-Nations series all in the same year. Lockyer also became only the second player to have won the golden boot award twice.
