Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 3332810, member: 1769"] I'm not sure if I like this or not ... but here are some details from the article [LIST] [*]open ended contract with no fixed term [*]no pay out if the club sack Kevvie [*]The club have to give Kevvie 3 months notice should they decide to sack him [*]As part of the deal, the club has given Walters the licence to go shopping and bolster his football department. [*] the deal will include performance bonuses for Walters should he steer us to the finals, the top four or the club’s first premiership in 15 years. [*]The deal is not all skewed towards the Broncos. Currently on a salary of $400,000, Walters will earn major bonuses if he meets Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), such as making the playoffs. [*]Donaghy and Ikin are also on standard contracts with no fixed term [/LIST] [B]Kevvie says:[/B] “I’m not expecting any favours from anyone here,” “I have to perform,” Walters said. “Every club has to get results and we’re no different. “I’ve said for a while I want to be here long term and I intend to do that. But I’m not a fool either. I’m not kidding myself. It’s about getting results and I need to get results to stay in the role which is pretty clear. “I want to be here for longer. We’ve had some player movement which hasn’t provided stability and what the Broncos need is stability across the playing group and the coaching staff. “I never saw myself as a short-term appointment. I want to be here for a while, but to do that everybody at the Broncos has to perform and I’m no different.” [B]Kevvie's manager, Chris Orr, says:[/B] “The Broncos want Kevvie to be their long-term successful coach,” he said. “The Broncos are looking to throw all their support around Kevvie by increasing resources, whilst taking away any contractual questions by entering an employment agreement. “This means Kevvie will be rewarded on results whilst also increasing stability across the club.” [B]Dave Donaghy says:[/B] “We’re in discussions with Kevin, so I’d prefer not to (comment) for now,” Donaghy said. “Look, Kev’s our coach. He’s our guy and he’s determined to succeed. “There’s been quite a bit of change here in recent times, but we feel that with a number of things falling into place, the opportunity exists to build on where we currently are. “We’ve prioritised investment in our football program and supporting our coach, staff and players. “The growth I’ve seen in Kev as a coach and in the program led by Ben Ikin (head of football) has been tremendous. “The pre-season starts Monday and we believe the group led by Kev will continue to grow on the gains we saw at the back end of last season. “It’s for them to do, but I’ve got the confidence and belief in them that they will.” “There’s real value in stability and continuity. I’ve been really impressed with Kevvie in the last three to four months. He’s certainly grown.” [/QUOTE]
