Darren Lockyer (24 March 1977) is a professional rugby league footballer. He plays in the National Rugby League competition for the Brisbane Broncos. His preferred position is at five-eighth but he has also previously played at fullback. He has represented Queensland in the State of Origin on 27 occasions and as an Australian Test representative on 41 occasions. Lockyer originally played AFL but switched to league due to his region not having the AFL code. Lockyer made his first grade debut for the Broncos in 1995. In 2006, Lockyer captained the Broncos to the 2006 grand final as well as being in part of three previous premierships with the Broncos. Hunt still plays for the Broncos and is the incumbent five-eighth and captain for Australia and Queensland.
