Queensland rugby league great Allan 'Alfie' Langer will get a statue outside of Suncorp Stadium after an announcement by the Queensland government.

Langer played 258 games for the Broncos between 1988-99 and 2002, and was one of the most dominant halfbacks of the 1990s.

The 51-year-old made 34 State of Origin appearances for Queensland, with only Cameron Smith, Johnathan Thurston and Darren Lockyer representing their state more times than Langer in the Origin arena.

Langer also played for Australia on 24 occasions.

Once immortalised in bronze, Langer will join the four statues already erected on the Suncorp Stadium concourse.

Lockyer, along with Wally Lewis, Arthur Beetson and Mal Meninga all currently have statues at the venue.
