Brisbane Broncos head coach Kevin Walters has reportedly expressed serious concerns over the club’s handling of Selwyn Cobbo’s future, amid reports the young star is being lured by a rival NRL club in a massive \$3.5 million play.The explosive development has sparked tension behind the scenes, with Walters allegedly blindsided by the club’s recent communications — or lack thereof — regarding Cobbo’s contract situation. Sources close to the Broncos camp say Walters is “stunned” by the mixed messaging from club executives and frustrated by the growing uncertainty surrounding one of the team’s brightest talents.Cobbo, 22, has been a standout for Brisbane, but now finds himself at the centre of a tug-of-war after reports emerged of a rival club tabling a mega four-year, \$3.5 million offer to poach him away. The deal, if accepted, would mark one of the biggest winger contracts in recent NRL history.“This is a player we’ve built into a star,” Walters is believed to have said privately. “There needs to be clear direction from the top about where we’re going with him.”While no official confirmation has come from Cobbo’s camp, insiders say his management is seriously considering the external offer — especially in light of internal uncertainty at the Broncos regarding their future backline plans and salary cap space.Fans have taken to social media in shock, with many questioning how Brisbane could risk losing a homegrown talent who has already proven himself at State of Origin level.More to come as the Broncos front office scrambles to clarify their stance — and salvage the relationship with both their coach and their star winger.
