THE COACH Poll: Should Kevin Walters be sacked?

[LittleDavey]

So far every player that Kevvie has said is part of the bronco’s plans have been tapped on the shoulder.

Shit, Reynolds is retiring at the end of the year?!?!

Seriously though, if we don't see some silver linings coming soon, they may as well burn the fucking club and everything in it to the ground.

I’m glad Oates isn’t in the team
A fucking pea heart and a sook

Actually really enjoyed the post game presser. Only 2 or so questions asked about tonight’s game. The rest was on TPJ & what else is happening at the club.
“Everyone has had 15 weeks to prove themselves“.
”Everyone at the club is being looked at”.
Seems like DD is doing a genuine clean out and from the way Kevin spoke and looked like the he had the weight of the world is on his shoulders, may have also been told that he isn’t particularly safe.
I would not be surprised if he has been told he will not be extended beyond 2022 if things don’t drastically improve.

Yep, agreed.

The more I see Kevvie as a head coach the more I realise he’s a specialist assistant coach. If only he’d swallow his pride and accept this and if only a head coach could see his worth as an assistant coach. He just has the perfect personality and skills to mentor some halves and attack for a team. See broncos 2015.

Oates is the last thread of attachment I have to this team and he's not even in it anymore.

 

[BroncsFan]

i didn't realize that playing wing was all about how many meters you averaged. thanks for correcting me ...

BTW there have been a couple of common complaints about Oates going all the way back to 2015 ... he still has those issues in his game

namely having feet for hands

He needs a better squad and a gun defensive coach.

We could have got Kearney and he snubbed us for Melbourne. That's what we're dealing with now. The culture has become so toxic at the club that we might need to sack the likes of Nolan and settle for fresh air, because **** knows where his replacement is coming from.

Picking Hunt on the team was a bad call by Kev. Will Hunt stay or will he go next week. Let's see if Kevs a fast learner.

 

[Sproj]

Yeah Kev is copping heat, that's obvious and rightly so. I still am willing to give him time but he needs to show something and I'd suggest Donuts has told him that.

The fact he picked him at all shows very questionable judgement.

Found a few comments in that post match interview very telling.

Firstly, he let slip that "over the next 2-3 weeks" is the timeline when change will be happening.

When asked about if everyone's under review, he looked absolutely rattled. Started fidgeting, looked uncomfortable. He's been pretty quiet/calm up to this point, but this was actual nerves showing through tonight.

I think Donuts has taken a month, and decided on drastic changes. GOOD! Burn the joint down Donuts.

From the looks of Kev, he knows he's up on the wall now. If we spoon, doubt Kev sees out the year.

The biggest challenge is even if we shred our current roster, who do/can we even buy for next year that's going to save us from the train wreck?

If the club is in disarray and couldn't tip water out of a boot with instructions written on the heel, then who's going to come here? Has beens and rejects on overs?

This is now a 5 year problem unless we land some killer blows - like recruiting a top class coach. If it were my club, I'd throw stupid amounts of money at Bellyache. Like 10Mil signing bonus. **** the NRL's admin cap, they can suck a fat one - what have we got to lose honestly?

Club is a PLC... if this nonsense continues, share price will crash, memberships crash, attendence faulter - no money in = massive cutbacks and sell offs which puts us in an even worse position.

Yep, we’re in strife. Starting to feel like a quicksand scenario.

I know Kev isn’t the best coach around but he walked into a one of the worst rosters in league history and I’m not sure if any coach wanted a bar of it. So to sack Kev after one season would be pretty harsh.

He's shown no improvement in the squad. Terrible bench usage. Suffers from foot in mouth disorder when talking to the media and hasn't shown any adoption to the new PVLeague style. What have you witnessed that shows he has any actual value left to offer?

There's no quality coach available. Although I 100% agree with throwing stupid cash at Bellamy, that isn't a realistic option. We ought to have signed someone like Hasler when we booted out Bennett, but now the cupboard is bare unless we turn back to Bennett, which again isn't going to happen.

 

[BroncosFever]

All you blokes wanting Kevvie sacked, tell me the coach you replace him with that instantly changes our performances?

I'll give you the tip, there are none

It's not a coaching issue, the club has been freefalling for the past few years.
