Bennett reckons he’s the only one who can coach the Broncos - but his former player and assistant coach has exposed that as a fallacy.
For his first two seasons, the normally jovial Kevvie presented like a man with the weight of the world on his shoulders. When I had lunch with him during the off-season, he barely cracked a smile, looking every bit like a coach who needed a top-four finish to keep his job.
As Bennett and Walters will tell you, managing expectation, scrutiny and the ego of players who are feted like rock stars in rugby league-obsessed Brisbane is fundamental to success.But Walters had a particularly tough job. Not only did he inherit a crestfallen team that finished last in 2020 following two disastrous years under Seibold, but also a roster that – excuse the crassness – didn’t seem to give a shit., summed it up when comparing the current crop to Bennett-coached teams of the past.
Exactly why Walters has got the Broncos finally humming is hard to pin down, but it’s clear losing hurts again.Adam Reynolds

Kevin McCarthy being ‘held to ransom’ amid Republican infightingUniversity of Sydney political scientist Professor Simon Jackman says US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is essentially being “held to ransom” by four or five Republicans. The US government is facing potential shutdown concerns in the coming days due to a lack of agreement among lawmakers on crucial funding extensions. The Republicans, who hold the majority in the House, appear divided on strategies to ensure the government remains funded. “The Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, is being held to ransom essentially by about four or five MAGA Republicans,” Professor Jackman told Sky News Australia. “One of the worse jobs in Washington is being a Republican speaker of the House when you’ve got this extreme wing of your party … can hold the whole process to ransom.”
