Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3368810, member: 9853"] [I][B]Billy Walters[/B] wants to stay a Bronco:[/I] [INDENT]“It’s been the best pre-season I’ve done in any NRL system. I’ve got Kevvie on my side knowing I can bring a lot to the team and showcase what I’ve got to the NRL. For me it’s been really good because I know he backs me and has a lot of confidence in me and what I can do. It’s made me more confident in my game."[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]"I know I don’t have to overplay my hand or try to be the best player on the field to impress the coach. I know if I do my role really well he will pick me. He just wants everyone to be the best they can be and that will take us to where we want to go.”[/INDENT] [I][B]Ben Ikin [/B]says he's "not without talent:"[/I] [INDENT]“We wanted Billy to find his feet inside the team, which means the season will play out a little longer for him. But at some point, we will start the conversation with Billy about what the next phase of his career looks like. Billy has been very solid in our first two games. He was great at five-eighth in that win over the Rabbitohs and then he added a stack of value coming off the bench to play dummy-half against the Bulldogs."[/INDENT] [INDENT] “Billy is a great young guy, he can clearly play and he has fitted into the Broncos system. They are a really close group and you can tell from the first two performances they are closely connected and they play for each other. Billy has been an important part of our start to the season. It will come up on us pretty quick. We have to have discussions with some guys fairly quickly so I dare say we will start talks sooner rather than later.”[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]“When he got here I was looking forward to seeing what he had under the bonnet in his first pre-season here and I have been impressed. He works hard, he wants to learn, he has great humility about the way he goes about his work. He doesn’t lack confidence. He knows what he wants and he is prepared to go after it."[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]"Billy has always been competitive and he is not without talent. He is one of those guys who just needed to find an opportunity. Now that he is at a club where his father is the head coach, Kevin will want to give him every chance to contend for spots and he won’t want to let his father down. The ingredients could deliver a good outcome for Billy.”[/INDENT] McHunt [/QUOTE]
