Bedel Lifts Lid on Madge & Te’o Clash! Metcalf’s Early Return, Dragons Halves Under Fire & Broncos on Brink? – 08/03/26

Welcome to NREL's 360, rugby league from every angle joining me again, the great

cool and talus.

Great spin the journals in, Paul Crawley and Dave Ricchio and well, well, well, there's

never a dull moment in rugby league or any.

No, there's not.

No, it's not.

But I wish it had changed clubs.

I wish it had changed clubs.

It's the Broncos again, Crulls.

Yeah, it's unbelievable, isn't it?

The Premier's from last year and it's just not a dull week up there, is there?

Long, you know, you had pain, harsh, you had the start of the season, you had the

grand final replay, you think everything's hunky-dorian today, the big news.

Quite extraordinary.

And on the back of that great win against the Melbourne Storm, yeah, the game Broncos

back in the headlines.

We've got a huge show coming up, Hudson Young, Ed Morgan Smithies, but let's cross-live

now to the Currymails Peter Bidell, who's at Suncorp Stadium, bomber.

You broke a massive story today.

Talked us through what happened.

Yeah, good evening, Brathe.

Look at a huge story here, some ruckians at Red Hill today.

Ben Tio, the assistant coach of the Broncos, has tended his resignation.

Now, this is a bombshell development for the Broncos.

Not even their CEO, Dave Donahy saw it coming.

He was, I'm told, in a heated verbal altercation with Mark McGuire, the head of

head coach a couple of days ago before the game against the Storm.

And then I'm told that they tried to have some crisis talks on Monday night between

Ben Tio, Mark McGuire, and the head of football, Troy Thompson, to try and smoke the peace pipe

to come to a resolution.

That wasn't forthcoming.

I'm told that Ben Tio, for some reason, seems to be offended by the latest ruckians with

Mark McGuire.

And he tended his resignation this morning, huge decision by Tio, just four rounds into

the season.

The bombshell development is a shock to all at Red Hill.

So even some of the leading players at the Broncos guys weren't aware of it.

Adam Reynolds wasn't aware until late last night, the captain.

So this is a huge move from Ben Tio, but he's been running, of course, in the blue shirt

for the Broncos in games.

They'll have to find another assistant, a real shock.

Let's hope it doesn't derail their season.

But you said it's a shock.

How do the Broncos hierarchy and players feel about this?

Well, a lot of them weren't aware of it, and also Dave Donney, the CEO today, talked

to be out the fact that Mark McGuire was pained by the decision that was his exact word.

But he also makes no apologies, both in the sense that he said, look, we want to be a

high performance organisation.

We're backing the head coach, and if an assistant wants to move on, that's his prerogative.

But they want to set some high standards, and they're prepared to back Mark McGuire.

Now the coach has come under a lot of criticism, as we know, there's been talk about his

training methods.

There's been talk about whether he's off with the players, whether he's lost the dressing

room.

It seems now, like he's lost one of his assistants, not only in terms of head count, but whether

there's a mutiny among his staff, and Dave Donney's resolute.

He says we're standing by what we believe in.

Mark McGuire was hired to bring a premier ship.

He's done that in his first season, and unfortunately, Ben Teo has a different point of view.

He's decided to go in another direction, but it's going to be business as usual for

the Broncos.

It has to be against the dolphins in the Battle of Brisbane on Friday night.

It's a big game for them.

But you said there was a heated exchange last week before the Melbourne game, but what's

the rule reason for the departure?

Do you know what that exchange was about, or why he's left?

Well, Braith, look, I broke the story, and I've had some information about Ben Teo

and Mark McGuire for some time.

Look, it's multifaceted.

Now, one of the things I'm told is that Ben Teo is highly principled, and he's very driven

in terms of the defensive principles he set for this Broncos team.

He's been the defensive coach.

Now, I'm told that they didn't always see I-to-I imagine Teo over some of the defensive

patterns, some of the defensive methodologies, and they way they wanted to run things.

Now, that's natural.

I mean, you're going to have coaches at all clubs that don't always see I-to-I, aren't

always on the same page.

And it is the head coach's progative, I imagine, sometimes to call the shots as they see

fit.

That's why they're the head coach.

But I'm also hearing Braith that Ben Teo, last year, was approached by Josh Hane, the

Titans coach, to join his coaching staff.

One of the things that Hane had recommended to Queensland coach Billy Slater was that Ben

Teo, an assistant coach for the origin team this year.

I'm told that Billy Slater approached Ben Teo, about the job.

Ben Teo went to Markle McGuire in the Broncos, and they vetoed the move.

Now, that would be, I think, enormously disappointing for Ben Teo, and it was not only

a decision by McGuire, it was formalised by Dave Donnelly, the CEO, so they had already

lost Matt Ballon as an assistant with them, they didn't want to lose a second guy.

So whether that was also a factor, I believe it was, but it's multifaceted, but at the

end of the day, it seems like Ben Teo wasn't, didn't have his heart totally in the job,

and he wants to change.

Gordy Obama, you've always got your finger on the poles before you go though.

I mate next to you Gordy.

Hey Pete, just quickly mate, what's the optics on Adam Reynolds' play in this week?

Oh, there you go.

Just sitting over here, Gordy, he's getting a needle on his ribs, he's playing, believe

it or not Gordy.

He's got a clearance from the medical staff.

There you go.

Get on your bummer.

No playing flights.

Get on your mate, have a good week, meet you for the information.

Thanks boys.

Pain harcers out by the way, Gordy, so maybe you've got pain this week or no.

There you go.

No, I won't argue with him.

He's a bit bigger than me.

All right, Gordy Obama.

What about that?

It's pretty critical information there that Peter Badell has given us, and a big move from

Ben Teo to quit the Broncos after just three rounds, after a win against the Melbourne

Storm.

Greenfinle rematch coming from points behind Gordy.

Well, it's strange.

I'm sure that not every assistant coach and coach sees eye to eye on how they're going

or what they do every weekend, it's strange that the success that they've had, that the

relationship has split apart like this.

That's to me, I'm shocked.

He's just resigned what a four-year deal to go there, and there was talks of him coming

to the Titans, and I did hear that, and it would have been great to have Ben, but we've

got our staff now, but for him to start, the Broncos, he thought that there could have

been a dynasty here where they were going to go on, and there's multi-premierships, but

four rounds in, he's decided to leave.

It's interesting.

Yes.

There's no question in the world this has been rumbling on.

We find out now for some time.

You don't have a blow-up like this, and quit your job after one set, two with the coach.

This has been going on behind the scenes.

I found it interesting that Bomber just mentioned there how Billy had approached Madge to try

and get a clearance for Tio to go on the Queensland coaching staff.

Like when Madge was at Canberra as an assistant coach, wasn't he coaching the Kiwis, then

he got the New South Wales job, he was still there, and he was applying for other jobs.

So I just found that quite fascinating.

The thing that gets me guys is the narrative that the Broncos are shocked and surprised

by this bombshell decision by Ben Tio to tend to his resignation today.

When, in the space of one day, journalists, like myself and Pete Badell and Brent Reed

and Mick Carrianas and the rest of the team, can uncover clearly a trail of disruption

and disharmony in regards to Ben's working arrangement with the Brisbane Broncos.

So I find it bizarre to say the least on why the Broncos are so shocked this has evintuated.

And the fact that Ben Tio was knocked back from the position of Queensland Origin Coach

assistant role, there's no doubt in the world, he was rocked by that.

I mean, let's put that into the context clause.

Let's think about an assistant coach who believes one day he wants to be an NRL coach.

Well, is it not a wonderful, wonderful appointment for the Brisbane Broncos

that one of their own are inside Queensland camp?

One, it's outstanding that he would be working with the best players in the game.

Two, you become a conduit for recruitment because those are the players understand

how you coach.

And three, as a development process for Tio as a coach,

none better origins under high pressure of origin.

I got no doubt that played a major factor in his exit today.

The Broncos CEO addressed the media this afternoon after a assistant coach Ben Tio quit.

Yeah, look, we've had a number of conversations with Ben over the past 24 hours.

It was a certainly a conversation we didn't see coming to be fair.

And well, Ben's attended his resignation, which we're working through now on a conversation

we've been myself yesterday and that part of it needs to say private and confidential,

I think.

It's been your offer, you know, support to them, you know, their well-being is without doubt.

You know, our primary, as always, being our primary concern, looking after our people.

Imagine Ben, you know, go a long way back.

It had some wonderful times together as well, you know, they want to compensate us,

didn't they?

They want to comp last year, six months ago, you know, at the Broncos,

which was an amazing experience, one of the things that I really enjoy about working with

the managers of constant communication, and we've had a number of conversations today

about, you know, what it looks like at the moment and what it looks like moving forward.

I don't think a lot's going wrong with the club to be fair.

I think a lot of external perceptions of views don't marry up with what's happening internally.

You know, and on the weekend, let's not forget Friday night,

and for the first time in ten years, we beat Melbourne in nope.

Donnie here there spoke for about 20 minutes in his press conference this afternoon.

I watched every bit of it, and to be honest, I didn't get the anything out of it to be fair.

How do you think the Broncos of handball?

Well, what was interesting in what he said there was that the club's given assistance to his wellbeing,

his family's wellbeing, and there was a lot of rumblings coming out of Brisbane today

that this may have had something to do with Ben Tio's mental health, and he was stepping away.

And I got told, that's absolute bullshit.

This is to do with the fact he's had a gut full work and with match.

That's just, that's not us putting a spin on it, that's the truth of Ben Tio's situation.

And so you look at there, and Dave says, everything's hunky-dory at the club.

They've won a Premiership, they've won, you know, the Greenfawn or rematch,

they've got all the sponsorships and memberships and everything.

But what they haven't got going for is they haven't got pain-hast, right?

They haven't got, they haven't got the defence coach now.

Now, everyone says, defence is what wins Premierships.

And Ben Tio, last year, was credited with the fact

when the Broncos were going through that tough period

where they'd lost four games in a row.

And I think it culminated in a big loss to Manly at Brookvale.

Ben Tio was the one that could read the room.

And he figured that these boys need to get out, we need to enjoy ourselves.

And so he convinced Madge to let him go for a beer,

and he'd spoken to Carrigan about it.

But it was his ability to have that rapport with the players

and pull them aside and keep them on the path.

And then that put them on the trajectory to win the Grand Final.

And so, without that, you do have to worry about what may happen going forward

because Madge's history is that he can go in and he can get the job done.

But unfortunately, things can go pear-shaped after that.

Crawls is right.

Absolutely, Ben Tio acted as a very much a cushion for a go-between,

between Madge and the players.

And the players confided in Tio a lot.

And that's what, again, across every club,

the assistant coach plays a pivotal role in being that barrier between head coach and playing group.

And Ben was that. So without him there,

I'm first of all glad to see how they feel that forward.

Well, I'm fascinated that they use the mental health there with Ben

because at the end of the day, it's going to be known to everyone

why he left at some point Ben's going to talk, right?

Because if he wants to be a future coach and still be involved in the game

and have those opportunities, at some point someone's going to say,

well, why'd you leave?

So if he didn't leave because of those reasons,

why are they saying that, do you think?

Well, Donna, he didn't say that in fairness.

Okay. He said, we want to look after their well-being.

But there was definitely talk coming out of the club today

that that was circulating around and he wanted it squashed.

You've heard this too, Gordy. Yes, he wanted it squashed.

Okay. Because he is a future coach.

I had Ben's comfortable with his decision.

Yeah. And he is a future coach and people speak so highly of him brave.

Like, you know, they talk about him as being a potential assistant

to Billy and that because they do seem as a future coach.

And Dave was right before, like, why would you want to squash that

out of one of your assistants?

That opportunity to make him grow.

I just don't get it. Boys, what's going on at the Broncos?

Honestly, when?

So a pain-ass situation blows up.

The Broncos, you know I was critical

how they handled the management of the addressing that departure

of the best, best front rower in the game.

They claimed to me that they didn't have time to prepare a press comments

because they were blindsided by the decision of pain-ass.

The biggest club of what, Donna, he wants the Broncos to be.

They want, they want, he wants them to be the biggest

and most powerful sporting club in Australia.

They didn't know their best player was leaving.

Today, they claim they had no idea their assistant coach,

such a pivotal member within that coaching staff,

the right-hand man to Michael McGuire,

the defensive operator of the Broncos that helped win him a premiership,

they had no idea what is going on.

Yeah, he could ask the question, see, so, with all that stuff,

how have the players taken?

Well, Ben Toltey took to a press conference this morning

and revealed that he learnt the news of Ben Teo's departure via Instagram.

What is going on at the Broncos?

You look at it right, but pain-ass has moved on.

Yep. The situation with yourself

and being removed from the plaque and the room, the conference room.

And now, the assistant coach walks out round three.

Do you not do it? What's going on with the leadership there?

Is there a problem there with the leadership?

Well, I'm not in there and Majes has asked me to come in the four wars

and I decline.

Alan Langer needs to go back and get in the four wars and wear the boot shirt.

There's no one that brings a side together like Alan Langer.

So, if I was at the Broncos right now, with that playing group,

vulnerable, with blokes leaving, with the uncertainty,

he's a guy that's always held every team together that I've ever played with.

But Alfie had the blue shirt when Kiwi was coachin'.

I know. He surrendered that when Majes took off.

Not sure.

But that's the question that I'd be asking, just to go back.

And then no one knows, because we don't hear anything.

And then, obviously, the CEO didn't know that his assistant coach was unhappy.

And people make decisions and you can make it over night, bro.

Yeah. Yeah.

And I'd tell you something about Ben Teo, he's a man.

So, it probably would have pushed him to a point where no one wants to do that.

He's four years into, and he's got a young family.

I'm as well.

I asked the journalists last night,

what they thought of Gordy's name being removed from the headquarters up in Brisbane.

What did you guys think of that?

It's a disgrace.

No suit, I mean, administrator at that club, is going to do what Gordon did for that club.

Like, I've watched the Broncos since their inception.

There is not a bloke that gave more, played harder or tougher than Gordon.

You know, pain hases up in that era now, but there was no one.

He won three premierships.

He captained the club.

He won a Clive Churchill medal.

There was a famous story that Bennett told me once,

when Gordon took over as captain, and I'll embarrass you here, Gordy,

but when, I think, Kethe had retired at 2,000,

and they'd gone away on an army camp,

and there was four bloke's in contention for the job.

There was Gordon, Darren Lockyer, Petro, and Shane Webbke,

and they're at this army camp, and they'd been told this story by the,

the commandeer, where there was women and children down the bottom of the hill,

and they were, you know, they'll be abused and bashed, and everything like that.

And they said, but under no circumstances,

I had to go down there until the reinforcements arrived.

Well, everyone's gone back to their groups,

and they've done exactly what the commandeer said,

except Gordy, who went back and told his group,

exactly what's going on, and he said,

now we're going down that hill to take him by force,

and the commandeer said to Wayne Bennett, he said,

there's your captain, he said, because sometimes you listen to instructions,

but leaders know when to ignore him.

And that's who he was.

Good story, that one, Gordy.

All right, with both teams coming off a win in the Broncos,

in the headlines again, the stage is set for an epic battle of Brisbane.

The Battle of Brisbane.

It's the Broncos and the Dolphins, big brother, a little runner.

Six times they've met since the Dolphins came into the cockpit, 2023.

The Bronx won five of those half-dozen matchups.

Here we go, the Battle of Brisbane begins.

The records, they don't mean anything in live or in games.

We all know that.

For starters, let's look at the list of former Broncos now with the Dolphins.

Herbie Phanworth, Thompson, Phanworth, and Flagler.

The Dolphins are showing brothers.

A Sarko, Nicarima, and Cobboh,

and don't forget Max Plaff and his old man,

Johnny Plaff.

Johnny Plaff didn't just play for the Broncos.

He won four premierships with him.

Four, this great little man with a big man's game.

But don't expect the likes of Katani Stags

to be politely giving away the keys to the house any time soon.

Stags will run away and win the Battle of Brisbane for the Broncos.

Yes, the Battle of Brisbane, the Broncos, and the Dolphins,

right after the Warriors and West Tigers.

And a just game better and better.

Friday night football, right here on Foxland.

Yes, as the Broncos up against the Dolphins live on Foxlead,

Friday 8pm, and this game has produced some classics

since the Dolphins have joined the competition

and both teams coming off a wee bit.

Seven o'clock in Queensland.

No, it should be huge, right?

I think there's five games in or four games.

Brisbane have won most of them and this was a great moment

with Katani Stags as obviously Dolphins flags everywhere

and he just reminded them, this is our house.

So, oh, home, there it is.

So, it'll be a Saturday, you'll imagine.

If it's good weather in Brisbane on Friday,

I might even sneak them in myself.

It's huge, yeah.

You've got two of the best attacking teams

in the competition going up against each other.

You saw the Dolphins the other night,

how they just really put the sharks to the sword

in the blink of an eye and they've got match winners across the park

but the Broncos have had the wood on them.

So, you know, like if the Dolphins are going to be a top eight team

this year, they need to stand up in this one.

My favourite player is playing boys, Herbie Farmworth.

He's just the best to watch.

He's ability to beat tackles and create space for his teammates

and against the sharks.

It was Herbie.

I mean, how does the centre, with all that stark quality

that Dolphins have, it was the centre.

Well, as the dog said last night,

it's a battle of the two best centres in the world

because he's up against Katani.

Well, we've great respect to Katani.

I don't think Katani's number one.

Herbie's right up there and so, Stephen.

But...

Herbie's in grateful.

Oh, man.

Well, the dog's in grateful.

That's right.

It was only injury that stops him.

But what the dog says goes, all right?

You can look at the ins and outs around four.

Thanks to sports betting, there's some big ones here

heading into the weekend.

Billy Smith returns from...

For the roosters.

With E-Buy concussion.

I haven't heard that one before.

Do we name it half-backed, man?

Six for the Tigers.

This is huge for the Warriors.

Metcalf returns at five-eight, but Boyd remains the seven.

Sherry named it himself while it's cut for the dogs.

Hars out.

Reynolds returns, Gordy.

And for the new cast of the night,

Fletcher, Sharp named it five-eight.

He was a late exclusion last week.

He's back in, which is huge for them.

But the story out of this really is Luke Metcalf.

That's it.

Well, a season he had last year, leading the Dalian's.

But the guy and he, spot ten of Boyd,

has been in career best form.

Absolutely.

But they have found a spot for both of them.

Do we like this?

So, there's a training session tomorrow over in New Zealand

with the Warriors and that will be the day for Metcalf.

To prove he is absolutely in the team.

Andrew Webster has chosen Luke in the anticipation

that everything's going to be OK.

He's done everything he can, as far as the rehab

back from a torn ACL suffered last June.

To get him back so soon,

and, you know, what are we round for?

That's a huge plus.

Huge.

It's also a brave decision by Webster, isn't it?

Like, Metcalf last year before his injury,

he was leading the Dalian's.

He was playing Sevanid,

said that he wanted to be the main man, right?

But Boyd's come in this year and he's played so well

that you just couldn't move him,

and he seems like a natural Sevan, doesn't he?

And Metcalf would far bit into the sixth jumper.

But I just think it, on every front,

it's just good coaching from Webster,

because, you know,

ten of Boyd went down there

from the Gold Coast,

where it was a superstar kid,

but he never really found his way as an NR Royal player.

And over the summer, they've made him into a guy

that's up near the top of the top of the leaderboard

on the Dalian's.

And the guy that's leading the Dalian's, right?

He was an off-guard off-cut from the Dragon.

Jackson Ford.

Jackson Ford.

And he's trained him.

So at the start of the season,

you're thinking, no Metcalf, no Barnett.

Yeah.

He's not going to struggle to make the eight.

Yeah.

But the two blokes that have come in for him,

it's not a wonderful job.

They're flying.

Great to see you over in New Zealand.

Let's get to the Dragons and Flanau.

Resist the urge, sorry, to make any changes,

even though they are zero from three calls.

Yeah, look, I did a story on Fox Sports online this week saying,

the Dragons are zero and three, right?

The reason they extended Flanagan at the end of last year

was supposedly, you know, to create stability.

Right?

It hasn't created stability.

For the life of me, can't understand

when they'd finished 15th last year

why they had to extend him after that

to the end of 2028.

There was no one beaten down there.

Where hasn't it created stability?

Dave, we're still talking about it.

We're still talking about it.

They've started the season zero and three, mate.

Yeah, I'm just going to say that.

You know, and I think in fairness,

we saw on the weekend, right, in that loss to Parameter.

They had multiple opportunities to win that game.

I agree.

But the elephant in the room remains, right?

They've got two halves that aren't getting the job done.

They had so much opportunity to win that game.

And every time you bring up the name Cole Flanagan,

you get accused of bullying and some fare on the family

and everything like that.

Well, at the moment, it's still not working, Dave.

So what have you done?

Well, they've brought in Atkinson, right?

Yep.

And tried to turn him into a seven, right?

With only limited experience.

He's younger than Cole.

Cole's 27.

He's 25.

He hasn't played near as much first grade.

Flanagan's played over 125 in our real games now.

He's played the majority of his career as a seven.

Hasn't played it as a six.

But it's almost like it's been switched this year

so it puts the pressure on Atkinson.

Yeah, I think it's unfair that all the pressure on Atkinson.

I think it's unfair that all the pressure on Atkinson.

It is.

The pressure's not on him.

It's not on him.

I'm with you on the results.

But completely, the reason Daniel Atkinson left Cronoa

was to be a starting half-back in the NRL.

The St. George L. Awera Dragon gave him that opportunity

of his dream to be a starting half-back in the NRL.

He's three games into that journey.

He is three games into that journey, right?

But that halves combination, Dave.

I don't think it's going to take the drivers to where they want to go.

Are you blaming Atkinson for having a dream

where you're blaming the people who made the decision?

Are you writing Atkinson off as a half-backer?

No, I'm not.

They were selling Atkinson some of his dreams.

I mean, he's saying that's on dreams.

I'm called what's the swap the halves?

OK, so what it worked?

No, Atkinson...

No, atkinson.

No, it's only the same.

Atkinson called Flenic and Dave, right?

Yep.

...is not a five-eight.

When he took the line on the other day, right,

he didn't have the strength, the size, the speed to get through.

If that's Ethan Strange, who is a five-eight, he goes through.

Right?

That's my concern with the dragons at the moment.

OK, so he bought Kion for next year, he's a great son.

I don't see the problem with the dragons.

Who played them a half-backer.

Listen, well, this is this is this is what we talk about Dave Colson signed for another year hasn't he?

Yep, and and and the club spoke about going out and getting a a top flight

Seven, right? Atkinson's the bloke they landed on. I'm not saying he's not going to be a good player

What I'm saying is the opportunity it stared us in the face the other day. Yeah, they had so many opportunities

Well, it's where their recruitment's not right, Dave. Like so that's a point since Flanagan's arrived, right?

He's bought guffo. Now Jason Riles and we criticise him

I criticise him when he let guffo go, but hindsight tells you by signing Isaiah Hongi and letting guffas and go was the right move

Big go has been a tremendous competitive player over the stretch of his career

But he is getting towards the backhand he hasn't got the speedy once had and he's still signed for another year beyond this right?

You've got Damien Cook there again. He's playing well, right? Yeah, he's getting another year

So Flanagan has got his finger. He's signing at the time and now it's not you got to get the players into the club first

Well, the only thing he's got players. I just spoke about seeing it now saying it's an ordinary sign

I'm saying that I have at the start of the season right

I had concerns when I looked at the drag as I'm thinking to myself of all the rosters in the competition when it comes to attack

I think they're the most limited

I don't disagree and yet and yet he's got halves there who they created so many opportunities there to be the other day

I can expect and it's just it's it won't work. I got Dave

But that's great. I've created those halves too though. Like King Tong is there, right?

Yep, is he he's fit? So that's where I was getting to. Yeah, who comes in and Guava they got really global last year

And Kade Reed sitting there, but not ready yet, but there's a bit of a pattern there, right?

Like they could have went a different angle, but they've gone this way. They've gone this way because they've extended call

For a next season, yes

Can I tell you something they're struggling the score points

They're actually really competitive the other day, right?

They had Val Holmes out there were just strong in the ball to him like under eight like the Harzwa

And I normally stay out of the way they play, right? Because I'm more of an effort guy and they got two big back roles

That run really good lines. Yep, they got Sloan, right? I don't know what their kids done so bad

He's a bit of X factor. He can score points all this space that they were creating you would think that someone with his space

You know speed and agility would love that type of game and the way the rules are changed because he's a bit slight
