Kevin Walters’ heartbreaking grand final statement following a crushing defeat.

Kevin Walters, who was feeling dejected, tried to find some good in the outcome but acknowledged that it “pisses us off.”.

After a terrible final 20 minutes handed the Panthers a comeback grand final victory, Brisbane Broncos coach Kevin Walters has acknowledged the feeling of losing a premiership “pisses off” his playing group and staff.

The enormous task of trying to revitalize his team as they get ready to say goodbye to stars Thomas Flegler and Herbie Farnworth falls to Walters, who has won six premierships in his playing career.

When asked if it would be difficult to pick them up, Walters acknowledged that it would be, but he was able to see the bright side in a hopeless circumstance.

Everyone in that room can be extremely proud of (what they’ve done), he said following the game.
“Once the dust settles (we’ll move on).

“The difference between the club’s current state and its previous state, before all these guys got their hands on the club, is just astounding, truly astounding.
“.

Despite making an effort to remain positive, the coach did express his anger after Nathan Cleary’s try dashed their hopes of ending a 17-year premiership drought.

However, he added, “We wanted to win a premiership this year and we didn’t get it so that pisses us off.
Next couple of days we can sit back and be really proud of that.”.
