THE COACH Poll: Should Kevin Walters be sacked?

[Jedhead]

Unable to read the whole story, but I'm sure Kevvie won't be over the moon with stories of Broncos' legends waxing lyrical about how the team won by ignoring the coach's game plan.

Here's an interesting piece by Corey Parker on how the team ignored Wayne's game plan, and they all lived happily ever after. I wonder if this was the atmosphere under Seibold?

It was more around how its not all on the coach, and that the senior players need to work with him to drive the culture and success of the team. Bunch of young kids don't cut it.

You can read it in a few ways:

1. Wayne had to manage a team of swollen heads who thought they knew more than him. They decided to go their own way, and won (because of it, says Parker). Fast forward a few days and Bennett asked why they didn't raise their concerns at the time and that he would've taken stock. It's good to talk.

2. It's hard to pinpoint when the rot set in at Red Hill, but some say it was during Corey Parker's captaincy. Was he just one of the egos that were out of control and was it already spiraling?

3. Corey is sharing some wisdom, saying don't do what they did. Talk it out with your coach. Coaches are cool.

4. Corey is taking credit for being smarter than Wayne. Hire him as an assistant coach.

The way I read it is he's dropping a few respected names as his cohorts and making it sound like a brains trust. Change those names to Lodge, TPJ, Boyd and Milford and the coach to Seibold, and see how it reads. It sounds like mutiny, and why we needed a cleanout.

Hmm I remember there being some discussion about whose decision kicking for touch endlessly was in the second half of the GF.

Wouldn't be that game - first or second line in the story mentions it was after a game they'd lost.

The roosters game where Thaiday proudly declared even though we won and it was exciting footy we wouldn’t be playing that style again that season. We threw the ball around a lot that game.

Only five regular season games to choose from then. Them was the days.

*Six.

In my defense we were down by 2 tries to a covid depleted wooden spoon team.

He almost deserves to go for that first half. Need a very solid effort in both halves next week.
