Jarrod Croker "makes his bed before he gets out of it". It's why fellow super boot Daryl Halligan rates the Canberra Raiders co-captain in the top dozen goal-kickers of all time.
It's a nice way of saying there's nothing about Croker's preparation that's untidy.
And Halligan said what made Croker's record even more impressive was the fact he'd played about half of his 299 NRL games at Canberra Stadium - one of the more difficult venues to kick at because it's so exposed and at the mercy of the wind.
