Broncos coach Kevin Walters has sent a warning shot to the competition amid his side’s form slump during a tense presser following a third consecutive loss on Friday night.
Brisbane fell 22-12 against the Rabbitohs to drop three straight games for the first time since 2022 and they’ll almost certainly finish the round outside the top eight.
Walters was grilled by the Sydney media over how confident he is that he can right the ship of the reigning grand finalists.
“I’m very confident. I’ve seen what these boys can do,” he said.
“It’s just their attitudes. We’re just not quite right at the moment. But we’ll keep working on it.
“And when we get it right, you’ll all know. You’ll see it. Then we don’t have to answer these questions that you’re asking me now.
“I’m going to stay on the front foot and positive. We’re not lacking in fitness.
What’s letting us down is our skill level, which everyone would agree is of a very high level. We’re just not doing the basics.”
The Broncos are without their halfback and skipper Adam Reynolds (bicep) for another two months, while superstar fullback Reece Walsh has also been unavailable through Origin and injury.
