Cobbo: “I think he’s a nice guy but not a good coach”

[Harry Sack]

I don’t know if you did it on purpose or not but “Kebin” cracked me up. It’s the perfect nickname

Yeah that's what I call him. Kebin or Keb

It's been a rollercoaster ride for sure. He started out as Kevie, then went to Kevin followed by Kebin. He got back to Kevie there for a while from memory but by the end of the season he was back to being Kebin.

 

[JayPee]

He did specifically mention he thought about joining Redcliffe yeah so yeah, maybe that’s the club yeah. They couldn’t get Mariner so maybe they want Cobbs instead yeah.

Let's be real. He isnt smart enough to do that. Listen to the bloke.

 

[Broncs_Fan]

That's an issue and it'll have to be addressed if it already hasn't but there was nothing malicious about those comments.

This will blow over if it hasn't already.

Blow over? It’s just getting started.

Badel:

Headline describes it as "damage control" and a "gaffe." Lede says Cobbo "forced to apologise" for his "brutal assessment."

"Despite Cobbo’s apology, his initial comments will raise questions as to whether Walters is losing the dressing room after failing to steer Brisbane to the finals last year, highlighted by their dramatic late-season collapse when they crashed from fourth to ninth. Walters is off-contract this year and needs a finals campaign to ensure his tenure at Red Hill for 2024 and beyond. Cobbo inked a new extension back in June last year to stay at Red Hill until at least the end of the 2025 season."​

He's only one win away from being Kevvie again.

I shall go back to the bunker. Send me a fax when it’s safe to come out.

The question is being widely asked on many of the Bronco related fb pages. I stated that you were a tobacco farmer who lives just outside of Mullumbimby. Hopefully that throws them off long enough for you to leave the country.

You often here players say that their current coach isn't that good and he is ok.... yeah it's not blowing over.

I have never heard anybody else say something even remotely similar about their current coach. I would like an example.

I'm sure the media will try their best, but there's not a lot of meat to this story.

Would WB or Bellamy accept this? No chance.

Storm in a teacup, so guess he’s off to Melbourne. They were wanting a winger last year and Nofoaluma has gone back to Wests.

The game’s afoot.

Bennett has put up with worse, he'd be looking for another shiny new story to dangle infront of the media as we speak.

 

[JayPee]

He said the current coach wasn't very good. That is more than a bit of meat. It's lucky for them it didn't come out at the start of the year.

Didn’t Gamble say something similar? Might be a dick move from Cobbo but the fact remains Kev isn’t a coaches asshole.

 

[Galah]

I considered giving myself a lobotomy after listening to about three seconds of that.

the broncos are mirroring “days of our lives”

sort it out

There's nothing for them to dig into. Sure they can reference it and the Gamble podcast when they heap pressure onto Kev but that's all there is.

 

[JayPee]

I know he is average but I struggle to remember a bloke from a team where the coach is still employed openly saying said coach isn't any good.

 

[Foordy]

You and the word agenda. **** it’s incredible I’ve managed to get Cobbo, Gamble, Isaako, Haas, Mariner, Oloupa, and Ben Ikin in on my conspiracy.

Thanks for just proving my point...

When you link all of those people in the same sentence, your agenda is clear as day.

Ben Ikin has been nothing but positive and supportive of Kev.

And they majority of the players you listed wanted out for MONEY, or because they thought they were better than they are so left to TRY and get a starting position (doubtful they will)

 

[McHunt]

I'm sure the media will try their best, but there's not a lot of meat to this story.

Wishful thinking but this is a nuclear blast. The club's (previously) universally loved and most promising rising star has just friend-zoned his coach. Name an instance where the question of "losing the dressing room" was posed that ended in the coach's favour. It always snowballs from here.
