Brisbane have sacked coach Kevin Walters, just 12 months after leading the Broncos to a grand final. Walters was given a one-year contract extension until the end of 2026 in March, but six months later, he has been let go immediately. The Broncos finished a disappointing 12th this season and underwent a full-scale review, which resulted in the decision to end Walters’ time at the club. Chairman Karl Morris revealed the decision to News Corp. “We feel deeply for Kev,” he said.
“I’m grateful to the club for providing me with the opportunity to be head coach and we have come a long way from the wooden spoon to last year’s run to the grand final. “I wish the team and the club all the best.” Among the pre-season favourites after going within minutes of lifting last year’s premiership, the Broncos suffered a mid-season capitulation in 2024. The form slump came amid a slew of injuries, while questions were asked over fullback Reece Walsh’s form.
