Breakout Broncos youngster Tom Dearden has spoke about his commitment to returning the glory days to Brisbane sooner rather than later.

Speaking to The Courier Mail, Dearden spoke about how he believes Kevin Walters is the man to take the Broncos forward.

The 19-year-old is out of contract at the end of next season and will have many suitors should he make himself available to them, but he has said he is committed to Brisbane and plans on signing a long-term deal.

The playmaker admitted he had to take a "good hard look" at his performance and hoped to sharply improve on this year in the coming seasons.

Dearden was a ray of sunshine in an otherwise dark season for Brisbane, and he believes playing under Walters will only help him improve.

โ€œHe played in a very successful Broncos side and won plenty of premierships,โ€ Dearden said.

โ€œHeโ€™s been there and done that before so heโ€™s definitely someone Iโ€™d love to follow in his footsteps and what heโ€™s done at the club.

โ€œKevvie has such a big history with the Broncos so Iโ€™m really looking forward to learning off him.

โ€œI can see heโ€™s going to instil that culture back in the group and really bring the group back together.

โ€œHeโ€™s an ex-halfback and five-eighth so I reckon I can learn a lot off him and what he does around the group.โ€

Dearden spoke about his commitment to the Broncos and his drive to help bring success back to arguably the NRL's biggest club.

โ€œIโ€™ve been at the Broncos since I was 13 years of age so itโ€™s definitely the club I want to spend my whole career at,โ€ he said.

โ€œThereโ€™s a real good opportunity for me now so Iโ€™m looking forward to getting into pre-season training.

โ€œI definitely want to be here long-term.โ€
