NEWS Chris Johns quits

Kevvie's bestie, Old Boys Chairman and serial whinger Chris Johns has thrown in the towel on the eve of Ben Ikin's arrival at Red Hill, citing disrespect. Yet Walters claims he's all aboard the Ikin train.

Chris Johns:

“Yes, I have stood down. Because of my frustration at what I think is a lack of support and respect to ‘Kevvie’. We seem to continually spiral down the same drain with the same people making the same decisions at Kevvie’s expense.”

Walters:

Johnsy has been blueing with the Broncos for some time, so he’s probably had enough to be honest ... I don’t know.”

“I think Ben Ikin is a great appointment, we are starting to get things in shape here at the Broncos. I’ve had great support since Dave Donaghy came into the building. I have no complaints about Dave Donaghy. I am in dialogue with him all the time. It’s been a tough week for sure, but Dave and I are working closely together on the decisions that have been made."

“We are all on the same page with the changes and I’m looking forward to getting back to training on the weekend. Dave has made it clear that, if required, I have his full support to bring in extra resources."

Never meaning no harm

Donaghy:


“Our club has a really strong relationship with the entire Old Boys network. We’ve increased our support to the Old Boys this year and we are working through ways to support them further. We are channelling a lot of energy and investment into our football program. We will continue to provide Kevin with the support he needs.”

I think the biggest surprise for me is that I didn't know he was employed by the club.
He’s not

it’s like the old boys/girls associations at private schools
 
Personally I don't give a shit about any of these old boys unless they're at the club trying to make the club perform better
 
I think it’s ironic that an old boy (Johns) is whinging about an old boy (Ikin) being signed for a role in the front office of the club…

Ikin isn't an old boy who is apart of the clique, that's why.

It's just more jobs for the boys bullshit, which is exactly what got us in this position in the first place. People like Johns couldn't give two shits how the Broncos are traveling, they just want their old mates to be paid.
 
Johns reminds me of Joe Pesci in Casino with all this garbage. Fighting our new assistant coach, complaints about race days being cancelled, everything is disrespecting Kev. His behavior is suspect at best, almost like he still may be on the Storm payroll. If he keeps it up he may need to end up like Pesci in Casino, left in a cornfield in a shallow grave.

Correct.
Corey Parker called it out at the beginning of the year confirming your thoughts exactly ...
And Kev wants to be the coach, not on merit but just because, well, just because he wants it, and then he can get his brother, son and his knows who else on the payroll, and on the weekend he started the "I need four years" angle. And if any player dares suggest Kev is incompetent then Chewbacker is now going to name and shame them.
Does it ever occur to Kev what someone respected and competent, like Bellamy or Robinson, would say in the same circumstances ?
What a farce.
 
* 1 horrible mistake. the Hand of Foran. I hate hearing about that stupid 7 tackle set, it happened in the first 10minutes of the game. Same with the knock on ruling against the roosters. Most likely the correct call imo.
Yeah the knock on call was correct in the roosters game, also, maybe try not shipping 30 points in the first half of a final.
