Darius "Lockyer" Boyd

[Raikkonen]

Let me pre-face this by saying that I think Darius' form this year has been very good.

However, Bennet's perpetual adoration of the guy has become laughable when after he suggested Darius reached Darren Locker levels.

Darius is playing well in a very talented and well coached team. But, IMO he's overrated as an individual player.

If there is one play who grates on my nerves, it's Darius Boyd every time I see him I want to smack him in the face. I don't know what it is but he annoys the hell out of me.

Bennett is pretty much his adopted father, Darius has never known who his real father was.

There's actually an Australian Story episode on Bennet and his son (who has a mental condition).

I think his son is a sharks supporter, but can be found in the dressing rooms of various teams getting signed jerseys.

I saw that episode and I had a change of heart about Wayne Bennett especially when he said the one thing in life that upsets him is his son can't say that he's proud of him and the things he's achieved. Also didn't like Gordon Tallis after it he would tease the boy and make him cry.

He played one good game against hilarious Canberra defence.... lets not blow your shrivelled nutsack over him Wayne.

My sister (who also grew up in banky) has a daughter who contracted meningitis at birth 40 years ago and ended up severely retarded.

Yes he did the poor kid was in the dressing room say Gordy hurt me he was being too rough. I remember it because I thought how awful it was.

Actually it was the way Justin thought Tallis looked at him & he told he Dad to tell Tallis not touch him etc.

Tallis NEVER roughed up Justin Bennett.

No good mate...
I recently had viral meningitis (24yrs old). Most fucked up experience of my life.... horrendous discomfort and pain. Cant believe what babies and little kids must go through when they contract this shitty disease and have to deal with the after effects.
I still get some aches and pains and eye strain, as well as the occasional brain fart...

 

[Kenya]

Wow mate thanks for sharing that.
Will never forget going down to the hospital and seeing the kids with fluid on the brain so their heads were twice size,
aaahhh.
Niece had 18 (I kid you not) brain operations in two years.
Hope your stuff abates mate, all the best
