Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3454563, member: 9853"] [I]Broncos first choice hooker, [B]Billy Walters:[/B][/I] [INDENT]"I’m happy with the club offering two years. I’m not old but it’s nice to secure as many years as you can while you can. It’s going to be a big two years for me to hopefully extend that for a longer period. I was really happy to only miss one game. I was happy to get in a full year with no injuries."[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]"Until about round 19 we were on top of the world. Then it was a disappointing way to end the season. We’ve still got to take the positives out of what we achieved and the potential we’ve shown. We have got a lot of young boys in the squad that will learn from this year. Hopefully we can improve on that for next year.”[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]“I came to the Broncos and ‘Kevvie’ has always been a big fan of me at nine. I told him I wanted to try for the six jersey first and we’d talk about nine later. I was lucky enough to play a couple of games at the start of the year at six but didn’t really cement my spot there."[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]“He spoke to me about moving to hooker. It was either that or go back and play Queensland Cup. I obviously jumped on board playing hooker and I thought I showed some good things at points. Other times I felt like a bit of a passenger that was just there to pass. I need to be more than that if I want to be a good hooker."[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]“I didn’t train at all at hooker in the last pre-season so I was pretty happy with what I did at nine having not done a pre-season there. I’ve got a chance this pre-season to focus on the position. You have to have fitness to make a lot of tackles and then be able to produce something in attack. I have to get some more combinations with the middle forwards and halves. We didn’t have much chance to work on our combinations during the year.”[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]“I know Kevvie’s really motivated. We finished the season and instead of wanting to have a break, he wanted to get straight back into it. He is already planning next year and finding ways for us to improve. He wants to get back into it and prove everyone wrong … that we are a team that can win the comp and we just lost our way a little bit. I’m sure he’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again next year.”[/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
