Got a feeling that Paix and Kobe are going to play a lot this year. And I’m here for every second of it.

Sounds good to me Paix we a good little impact hooker, who can give Mozer some time to rest. Kobe will be interesting to see him next year, this really will be a make or break year for him. He needs to step his game up a bit especially with his running and possible offloads.

 

[Big Del]

I saw that & noticed Paix liked it too ahah, I could imagine players might not want to ‘like’ it in case Billy Walters sees a bunch of his teammates appearing to be thrilled by his father getting sacked

It`s Narelle who you don`t wanna piss off .
Remember Kevvie talking at his farewell press conference about the stress on his family ?
Narelle rang Tripple M and gave them a spray after Greg Martin and Billy fell out on air .She rang Margaux Parker and told her you leave my Kevvie alone !
Who else has she warned off ?

 

[Big Del]

Corey Oates officially announces his retirement.

Thank goodness !
No more sign him on minimum wage , turn him into a back rower talk ...

 

[Financeguy]

Yes, who wants discussion on a discussion forum, the nerve...

 

[Broncapz]

Just on the sports news here

And 9 reporting, Langer standing down as on field trainer, but will have a off field job. (not sad about it, it's about time it happened.)

This is good news.

Langer just feels like a negative talisman. Whatever he's doing on field isn't helping.

Selwyn, Kobe and Paix are all decent players who fell off a cliff under Kev.

Kobe and Paix are great squad filler players who don’t break the bank. The performance of guys like them says a lot about a coach.

If Madge wants to get a team behind his brutal preseason, it’s a great idea to motivate the fringe guys by telling them starting spots are up for grabs if they can earn it.

Their competition for spots are only Billy and Jensen. It’s not that high of a hill to climb to take their jersies

I'll put Kobe in the 2nd row in replace of Brendan and move Brendan to the bench as possible a impact player

If I recall correctly she tore the board a new one after Seibold was appointed ahead of Kev.

Can't you just celebrate a very well liked player just for once without a need to try and get a gotcha moment in?

OK .
Thanks Corey you were a loyal servant . Best of luck for the future .

How`s that ?

Now back to regular programming ...

Called the Broncos a “pack of c**ts”

Cause she thought they stole his slogan.

Dunno about tore a new one .
Had a Karen moment that embarrased Kevvie more like it .

 

[heartly87]

I know te kura is big, but he just looks too slow and not vicious enough with his running. I know he is young, but I am not sold on him.

I am concerned he is just another kid that has come through the grades getting by because he is much bigger than everyone else, but when they hit first grade where the defence is better, they struggle because they didn't have develop other skills or endurance to get by.

From memory he turned the aggression up a couple of notches. His injury ruined a chance at showing himself this year.

And we were still dumb enough to give him a job after that.

Everyone talks about how good of a bloke he is, and I’m sure it’s true, but I’ve seen or heard about a lot of not so good bloke behaviour from him and his friends and family that I find it hard to reconcile

Such as?

 

[theshed]

Such as?

His wife calling the club the c word
His wife calling Parker’s wife and ripping in
His son quitting his radio job over his dad
Tallis publicly criticising Ikin and Kev not addressing it
Tallis raking his captain through the mud and not addressing it
His handling of Dearden
The multiple sources who allege he is difficult to work with
The way he threw the team under the bus during late season in press conferences

Oh right, so just what's been reported on already. I was hoping you had some insider gossip or something new to add.

Look, I don't think any of what you said makes Walters a "bad bloke" necessarily but I don't expect any coach to be a saint. I also don't think we were wrong to give him a stint as head coach or that our failures were necessarily ALL his fault.

We'll never see eye to eye on Walters but I'll always respect your posts on this as you were one of the first to cast your doubts on his abilities. He's gone now though so no use dwelling on the past. Onwards and upwards...

...I hope!

 

[bb_gun]

Does anyone really care that Kev's wife called the Broncos a pack of c-words? I mean, she's kind of right in many ways. One of the least rewarding aspects of my life has been supporting this dumb ass club and if the people in charge had made smarter decisions along the way, it probably wouldn't be. So yeah, the club is mostly run by a pack of useless kents and unfortunately I don't see that changing anytime soon, at least until a few more people are given a tap on the shoulder.

 

[Big Del]

Narelle abused the board for stealing the slogan that Kevvie stole from some body else . LOL .
