Craig Bellamy has nothing but kind words for his rival coach this Friday night:
“Me and him were really good mates in Canberra. We got on really well. Then when he went back to Brisbane, we would go and play the Broncos when I was still playing for the Raiders, and I would stay over there for the weekend with my wife."
Besties
“Me and Kevvie were always mates. He was good with us. He had been over to France and coached over there. He was especially good with our halves because that is the position he played. He was there in 2012 and won a premiership with us. I remember when he left us, that (head coaching) is what he wanted to do. He gets on really well with people, he has a great personality. The thing I found about him down here was when it came down to getting serious, he knew the right time. I think he has a great rapport with players and people at the footy club."
"I thought he would end up a head coach somewhere. Without a doubt. I think he has earned it. He obviously coached (State of) Origin for a bit. The one thing is he is very, very passionate about the Broncos. He loves them. He will do a good job there. He knows the Broncos history inside and out.”
“For me, I don’t really think about the team we are playing or where they are in the hit-list or coaches. It will be business as usual. We will catch up after the game for a beer. I suppose I have a bit of a soft spot for the Broncos – I was there for five years.”
