Broncos Dealt Major Blow as NRL Great Darius Boyd Departs Red Hill
The Brisbane Broncos have been hit with another setback as NRL legend Darius Boyd announced his decision to leave the club. Boyd, who has spent the last three seasons in Brisbane’s football department, has been instrumental in the development of the team’s backline, particularly with rising star Reece Walsh.
Since retiring from professional rugby in 2019, Boyd transitioned into a mentoring and coaching role at the Broncos. His vast experience and knowledge of the game, honed over an illustrious playing career, proved invaluable to the young side. Boyd worked closely with the backline, offering guidance and insight that contributed to the Broncos’ on-field success, particularly with fullback Reece Walsh, who has emerged as one of the NRL’s most exciting talents.
Boyd’s departure is a significant blow for the Broncos, who have leaned on his leadership and vision to build a cohesive and dynamic backline. His influence has been felt both on and off the field, with Walsh himself crediting Boyd for his rapid development.
“It’s tough to lose someone like Darius,” said a source from within the club. “He’s been a mentor, a leader, and someone who brings an incredible wealth of knowledge to the team.”
The decision comes at a crucial time for the Broncos, as they prepare for next season with high hopes following a promising campaign. Boyd’s exit leaves a void in the coaching ranks, and it remains to be seen how the club will fill the gap left by one of its most iconic figures.
As Boyd moves on to pursue new opportunities, the Broncos face the challenge of continuing their upward trajectory without one of their most respected figures behind the scenes.
