Message: [QUOTE="Culhwch, post: 3168882, member: 1983"] Calm down, mate, it wasn't even [USER=9326]@kooly87[/USER] who you initially responded to, but me, so the fact he didn't answer your question is neither here nor there. In any case, [USER=8686]@abashii[/USER] answered your question above before I had the chance to. And I happen to agree with kooly's points about offering Walters a one year deal. In my opinion, it's unrealistic to expect him to make significant strides in that short of a time, under the current circumstances, and under that kind 'do-or-die' pressure. As much as he might love the club and covet the head coaching role, I also believe that it's an insult to him to say, 'Hey, we kind of want you to be coach but we're also not sure, but we think you'll be desperate enough to accept these scraps we're throwing off our kitchen table. Here, dig in.' In the current climate he'd be far better off sticking with his guaranteed jobs at Fox and the QRL rather than rolling the dice on a poisoned chalice, but if you believe that isn't the case that's also valid. That's the wonderful thing about opinions. There seems to be something of a prevailing belief that players, and now coaches, should be happy to take unders to come to the Broncos, and I just don’t understand it. They should expect to get the equivalent contract that their skills and experience would gain them on the open market. If anything, I’m shocked we won’t have to pay overs to someone to come in and try and put out the dumpster fire that the Broncos currently are. Certainly that’s why the best candidates are relatively inexperienced, or are other club’s cast offs. And that’s more practically where Kevvie’s desire to coach us, as well as an apparent lack of other opportunities available to him, should benefit both parties. Kevvie gets the opportunity to put together two to three years of quality football to establish that he is a decent or better coach, and the Broncos secure him on what should be a fair and reasonable contract commensurate with his experience.
