OFFICIAL Michael Maguire Appointed Head Coach

[1910]

Wasn’t Walters on a heavily incentive based contract that could see him make a fortune with good results but he sacked with a minimum payout? Can’t see him walking away with a mil.

He had two years left and a month of this year, I would think for nearly all NRL coaches at a minimum that would be close to a million.

gotta read the disclaimer at the end of Dane Eldridge's yarns

He's a tosser.

If you accept the sacking- then you can't accept the extension. The extension that just cost another million dollars.

I am not a CEO but the way the Broncos just hand out million dollars every two years to the sacked coach can't be great business and now whatever they're paying Madge as well on top of the payout gets added to the bill.

Wouldn't there be clauses in the contract.

eg: Has to win a certain amount of games etc. Be in the top 8 by a certain round etc.

I am not too sure, on the back of the Grand Final and extension in May maybe not as many.

I have to ask are you kevs right hand man... where has it been released that we're paying out another million dollars?? Some reports say sacked.. some say walked away... who knows what the termination deal was... maybe didn't meet kpis so legitimate termination.. or maybe a handshake and a sweetener.. public sure as shit knows nothing... and if you're an insider your lips are loose as.

In 2023 the Broncos made the Grand Final. The point I was making that on the biggest stage, Reynolds struggled even when he was playing some of his best ever football, so after an injury plagued season and in the twilight of his career, why are we to believe he'll find another gear?

And that's just one season, Madge needs to worry about 2026/27 and I strongly doubt that Reynolds will be available for those seasons so he'll need to find a suitable replacement.

I'd be looking at changes in the backline, the forward formation and the bench. I'm not necessarily concerned about specifics because it's Madge's team and not mine, but give me an indication that this is your team and you're not trying to coach somebody elses' like Seibold fell into.

I think this is a very negative mindset tbh mate, give the bloke a fair go and trial. I have faith in Madge finding solutions. Maybe black comes in and develops well under Reynolds this year or mam steps up who knows, could even see Walsh go into a half role. Glad you aren’t coaching broncos because you’re not very inspiring.

I'm hopeful Madge can get some decent improvement from Hunt, Kobe, Riki and Piakura.
Even Goz could become a useful benchy given a simple game plan to stick to.
I think our attacking improvement will come across rlthe board from structure and simplifying/defining roles.
A proper preseason and less errors will help our D no end.
Top 4 result for mine is very achievable.

Experience tells us Seibold got 1.5 million and pushed for two to leave. I’ve never heard of a coach walking away with nothing with two years left. You’d have the worst manger ever.

Assuming Broncos have tightened up a bit since Seibold and two years left on his contract, club legend who they don’t want to upset or embarrass I think million would be easily arrived at and remember they said about an on- going ambassador role.

Which of course impacts the soft cap for Madge now too, another reason these payouts and sacking coaches has to stop.

You maybe right but I would suggest the reported KPI’s and performance clauses in his contract would impact his monetary entitlements as well as his right to continue as head coach.
Both of those would have looked on the poorer side towards the end, sadly.

Seibold got 1.5, Griffin got 1.6 from Panthers, Arthurs got 800k for his one year left.

Broncos paid out everyone else, Henjak, Griffin, Bennett and Seibs.

If you’re giving Seibs 1.5 you’d be a complete knob to not give Kev million!
