sad news for brisbane broncos coach….

Kevvie’s new contract is ‘loaded with clauses,’ as the Broncos criticise his ‘naive’ contract stunt.

With the arrival of new neighbours the Dolphins, the Brisbane Broncos will be under even more pressure to perform this season, putting even more pressure on Kevin Walters to succeed.

While the club is reportedly ready to show their faith in the rugby league legend with a new contract, the nature of his extension has been called into question and dubbed a “native” attempt to “silence the noise.”

According to the Courier Mail, Walters is set to sign a lucrative two-year extension. While the contract is said to include bonuses worth up to $1 million per season, there are also reported performance clauses that allow the Broncos to fire him and avoid a large payout figure.

With the addition of the Dolphins as new neighbours, the Brisbane Broncos will be under even more pressure to perform this season, putting even more pressure on Kevin Walters to succeed.

While the club is reportedly ready to reward the rugby league legend with a new contract, the nature of his extension has been questioned and dubbed a “native” attempt to “silence the noise.”

Walters is expected to sign a lucrative two-year extension, according to the Courier Mail. While the contract is said to include up to $1 million in bonuses per season, there are also reported performance clauses that allow the Broncos to fire him without having to pay a large sum.

Kent stated that the Broncos were accustomed to having their own way, but that they would “have to start fighting for it now” — and that on-field success would be critical.

Walters, on the other hand, insists that he and the Broncos are looking forward to the challenge.

“Anyone that’s working in the Broncos building.. we’re all very excited for the Dolphins coming into the competition and it creates a competition, more so than anything else, right on our door step,” Walters said in an interview with Triple M Queensland’s the Rush Hour

“… Already we’ve seen the impact of that .. we lost two players but we love the competitiveness that will bring to us, the edge that it will bring to the Broncos and likewise the edge that it will bring to the NRL.”

When asked about his own prospects,

“Even when the great Wayne Bennett was here, there were people saying this and that about Wayne, and Wayne once said to me,

‘Kevvie, when you start listening to the fans and the people in the stands, you’ll be surprised.'” If you listen to them long enough, you’ll find yourself sitting in the stands with them.'”As a coach, you have to have a direction and a mantra that you stand for, which I certainly do, and I certainly believe in what the Broncos are doing.”

“We have the players on a path to success, and we demonstrated at various points last year that we are a very good side on our day.” My job is to ensure that the playing group is consistent.

“We need to be a team.”
