The new Broncos coach, Michael Maguire, has addressed the buzz surrounding the Brisbane dressing room following Billy Slater's recent revelations about Reece Walsh.

With Kevin Walters being shown the door after failing to deliver top eight results, the players and fans were left shell-shocked.

Despite a turbulent season plagued by injuries, the squad failed to live up to expectations set in the previous year.

Walsh, a standout figure both on and off the field, faced backlash for his actions, with reports suggesting that standards in the Broncos dressing room had deteriorated under Walters' leadership.

In particular, Walsh was called out for displaying an 'ego' with his shirtless warm-up routine, a move that would not have been tolerated under the strict regimes of veteran coaches like Wayne Bennett or Craig Bellamy.

Maguire, known for his firm coaching style and no-nonsense approach, is set to address the alleged 'rockstar' culture within the team.

With a fresh perspective and a focus on discipline, the new coach aims to steer the Broncos back on track and restore the club's legacy of success.
