Daly Cherry-Evans will captain Queensland for the first time on Wednesday

There was once a firm belief - among media and the public - that certain people within Queensland Rugby League couldn’t quite cop Daly Cherry-Evans.He was, anecdotally at the very least, shunned from the Maroons for some time.Now it’s his team.So, what sort of State of Origin captain will DCE be?But Cherry-Evans does truly believe what separates the great Origin captains from the rest is exactly that - winning.Wally Lewis. Darren Lockyer. Cameron Smith.These are the footsteps Cherry-Evans now walks in and there’s one thing all those rugby league legends have in common.“The names you’ve just mentioned are probably so great because they won. They are winners. They were winners and when they played at Origin level they were successful,” he says.They are some of the greatest players to ever lace up a boot but their time is over.It’s Cherry time.
