Senator Kate Lundy today congratulated retiring NSW captain Laurie Daley for his wonderful contribution to Rugby League and Australian sport.
“Laurie is one of the truly great Rugby League players and he will be sorely missed from future NSW and Australian teams, Senator Lundy said.
“His performance in last night’s drawn State of Origin decider shows just what a champion he is. His form this series has been outstanding and although NSW did not win the series, they didn’t lose it either.
“Laurie might be retiring from representative football, but thankfully he is still playing for the Raiders and will hopefully lead them to another Premiership this year.
Laurie Daley’s career statistics mark him as one of the true legends of League.
Daley has played in:
-
3 Canberra Raiders Premiership’s (1989, 1990 and 1994)
-
20 State of Origin Matches
-
3 Tri-Series Matches
-
20 Test Matches for Australia
-
5 Super League Tests
-
198 First Grade Games
