In August last year, a heated feud erupted between Kevin Walters, head coach of the Brisbane Broncos, and Triple M Breakfast with Marto, Margaux and Dan’s Greg ‘Marto’ Martin, after Marto publicly called for Walters to be sacked following a dismal Round 21 loss to the Bulldogs.
The backlash led to Walters’ son, Billy, stepping down from his weekly segment on Triple M Breakfast with Marto, Margaux and Dan. Just a month later, Walters was sacked as Broncos coach.
Today, Kevin Walters made his first appearance on Triple M Breakfast with Marto, Margaux & Dan since the fallout…
HEAR IT NOW:
Last year Marto criticised Walters’ coaching style, claiming he wasn’t tough enough on the Broncos players and that someone needed to step in with a firmer approach.
“These poncy rock stars that are at the Broncos, they need a kick up the ass.
“But no-one is prepared to give it to them because Kevvie isn’t tough enough on people.
“I don’t like confrontation myself so I make everything a laugh. That’s what Kevvie does … It’s all fun and games, well it’s not fun and games now.”
