Is Kev gone?

I was stunned that he refuses to have anything to do with the Broncos because he's now a Titan (never played a game there, only on the payroll now). Yet he's so passionate about who should be coaching the club he refuses to have anything to do with. Poor Ol Gordy, not the sharpest tool in the shed.

I'm looking forward to seeing how some of the media reported pampered players react to Madges techniques. Good times ahead.
Gordy will go wherever there is money on offer….and a free sausage sizzle. The problem with putting someone like Gordy on a show like 360 is that he can’t remember what his opinion was the night prior so he’s a walking contradiction.

He's good for a laugh though. His crying has been thoroughly entertaining. When he said kevvie was a better coach than McGuire, pure entertainment. The other panel members couldn't get enough of him flailing away.

It’s like when Kent would launch into an impassioned defence of Sticky, it’s because they’re mates not because of any injustice.

I keep hearing that he’s hard done by because the players won’t listen. If the players aren’t listening to a coach that’s a damn good reason to sack him.

You have to respect the way Brisbane went about this. They fired someone who apart from this year really didn't under achieve and importantly, they had a plan for who they wanted as a replacement. They identified an issue with Kev and were ruthless when most other clubs wouldn't be.

It is an all in hire IMO for the reasons already mentioned. Madge will probably get fired in year 3 or at least not have his contract renewed. Everyone knows what type of a coach he is and day after day in club land that wears the players down. I think he will put them in a position to win in 2026 but whether they do win is another matter.

The way he coaches suggests they won't be in a good position to win the comp in the immediate years after he leaves.

As far as that clown Tallis what a petulant child he is.

Compare how the Broncos have handled this compared to how Parramatta fired BA and hired Ryles. The Eels took their time over both the firing, and the hiring, whilst the Broncos got it all done in a 48-72 hour period.

Fox don't discriminate if English is your second language.

They employ Gordie after all.
Gordie, Blocker, Mal, Spud and to a lesser extent Parker (he just makes words up). Mind you he is the silver medallist in that regard behind Noddy "Relutheless", an all time belter.
