The Broncos boss has given his stamp of approval to Kevin Walters as head coach despite mounting pressure and speculation surrounding his future at the club.
The 2024 season has been nothing short of a disaster for the Broncos, with Walters failing to steer the team into the coveted NRL finals once again.
Walters, who led the team to the grand final last year, finds himself in 12th place with just one regular season game left.
The hopes of a finals berth are dashed, leaving fans and critics questioning his decisions.
The former Maroons coach drew criticism earlier in the season for resting key players during a crucial match against the Warriors, resulting in a costly loss.
In a devastating blow to their season, the Broncos suffered a humiliating 40-6 defeat to the Dolphins last week when everything was on the line.
Despite a strong performance in 2023, Walters has struggled to replicate that success this year.
Speculation has been rife about whether Walters is the right man to lead the team going forward, especially with a talented roster at his disposal.
However, Broncos CEO Dave Donaghy has put an end to the uncertainty by publicly backing Walters as the long-term leader of the team.
