Following the heavy defeat, NRL great Billy Slater discussed the poignant nature of Walters' post-match gesture to his charges.<\/p>\n
"He makes a real point of the jersey," Slater told Nine's Friday Night Knockoff.<\/em><\/p>\n "It took four tackles of the Broncos to let in a try tonight, that's the disappointing their performance.<\/p>\n "Their resilience on their try-ling \u2013 46 points is not good enough for Kevvie and what he thinks a Broncos player should be performing like."<\/p>\n Walters himself was more restrained in front of reporters, saying post-match that the result was 'really disappointing'.<\/p>\n "It's not a great result, we just didn't control the ball," he said.<\/p>\n "When you're turning over possession continually, a good side like Parramatta, they'll just roll through you."<\/p>\n Walters rejected the notion that the weather (32 degrees with 50 per cent humidity) played a part, saying "Parramatta played in the same conditions."<\/p>\n "It just goes to show you how far apart we are from those better sides on a consistency basis."<\/p>\n The former Origin coach said that the only bright spot for the team was another stellar showing from prop Payne Haas, who led all forwards with 185 running metres.<\/p>\n "He's outstanding, Payne – I'm just disappointed for him that the effort that he can put in, it's a shame he hasn't got some more mates around him to help him out."<\/p>\n Walters also confirmed a tear in the calf muscle of captain Alex Glenn and said he would miss a few weeks.<\/p>\n For a daily dose of the best of the breaking news and exclusive content from Wide World of Sports, subscribe to our newsletter by<\/strong><\/em> clicking here!<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Kevin Walters delivered another impassioned message to his Broncos troops following their heavy defeat in Darwin.
