The Broncos’ largest private shareholder, Phil Murphy, is relieved to see the back of Pies, and has no doubts about his successor:
“Anthony Seibold has been too scientific for the players, it has all been too much for them. They just want to enjoy their football, not get hammered with stuff that is irrelevant. We have become the biggest rabble in Australian sport. It’s beyond belief. I fully support a change of coach. Kevvie is a good bloke and a Broncos legend and he understands the club.
“Kevvie’s manner is what the club needs. He is happy-go-lucky. He can bring some harmony and culture back to the Broncos. If Kevvie got the job, it would be wonderful for the club. There are some great coaches in the game at the moment that could also be available. There are coaches out there who would love to come and raise the Broncos up to where they were.”
Billy Moore says Seibold is just the start of purge:
“The coach (Anthony Seibold) and the CEO (White, leaving October 31) are going so they are the major figureheads in any organisation. But there are more fingerprints on this disaster than the CEO and the coach. The retention committee needs a shake-up. They need to have a good look at themselves. There is a big question mark over Peter Nolan I believe."
"I am happy to shout from the highest regions that Ben Ikin should get the CEO’s job. He is a perfect fit - he brings integrity and is a thorough professional who has credibility not only because of his rugby league IQ but he has also had forays into the business world. People have been saying the Broncos need to do a rebuild but they will go close to getting the wooden spoon so this will take some time.”
