Broncos Sack Kevin Walters After Poor Season

Kevin Walters has been sacked as head coach of the Brisbane Broncos following a disappointing 2024 season where the team finished 12th, a significant fall from their grand final appearance the previous year. The decision was reportedly made by mutual consent after a club-wide review, although there is some controversy with former player Shane Webcke accusing the club of not being transparent about the decision. Walters, who led the Broncos for four years, expressed gratitude for his time and will remain connected to the club as an ambassador. Players, including captain Adam Reynolds, were surprised by the announcement, indicating a lack of communication within the club. The search for a new head coach is underway, with potential candidates including Michael Maguire, Josh Hannay, and Brad Arthur.
