Dear Darren,
I鈥檝e never understood rugby league, but have seen enough State of Origin matches to know there is something special about the way you play the game. They say you are a captain鈥檚 captain, a leader鈥檚 leader: the fast-as-lighting country boy who would be king.
So I am distancing myself from my Queensland brothers and sisters in writing this letter. But I wouldn鈥檛 be writing it if you hadn鈥檛 already distanced yourself from your followers.
