LATEST JUDICIARY
 
I was 15 and holding back tears after we got munted by the Dragons in that 2006 qualifying final at Suncorp. Dad said "absolutely the loss we needed to have, perfect timing" on the way home.

Santa, are you my father?
Yes. Yes I am.

“He (Carrigan) came over and was saying to me slow your f***ing brain.
I just felt like at the time I was trying to help a teammate and help out and he (Carrigan) was coming at me telling me to be smart.
We have that relationship where we can pull each other up on the field and speak to each other the way we do.
I was agitated. I said what the f**k do you mean c*** to Patrick.
I just felt at the time I was trying to do the right thing for the team and when the penalty was given Patrick came at me I snapped at him.
 
This whole thing is ridiculous, why didn’t the MRC ask butler before deciding to charge Walsh based solely on a video from the broadcaster? Why would players want microphones on field anymore if it means broadcasters trolling through them looking to get them into strife?
 

Walsh is speaking​

NRL360 have played audio on what Walsh allegedly said.

Walsh: What the **** do you mean, ****? After the ref said obstruction.
You must be watching a different NRL360 to me because the footage they showed is him saying that to Patty after Patty tells him to slow his brain. He then immediately says I was talking to Patty when the ref penalised. Odd reaction for someone talking to the ref.
 
"I felt like at the time I was trying to support my teammate and he was coming at me," Walsh said. "Me and Patty have a really good relationship and we are very verbal towards each other."

Walsh said he responded to Carrigan, "what the f*** do you mean, c***".
 
so they tended a report from Butler. doesn't looki like he will be testifying for or against Walsh

6.35pm – A report by referee Chris Butler was tendered following the match, in which it is said that Walsh was warned earlier on in the match for his behaviour. "At half-time, I warned Adam Reynolds [the Broncos captain] that if Reece continued to question decisions he would be penalised."

Video and audio footage was also shown from previous incidents throughout the match which showed Walsh confronting the referee. Footage shows the above mentioned report from Butler regarding his conversation with Reynolds, where Butler is heard saying: "I get that he is a passionate football but I can’t have Reece questioning decisions. That is three times now.”

I never said he was saying that to the ref.

Show me a single NRL game where this doesn't happen multiple times per game - smh.
 
6.50pm – Walsh continues to give evidence, saying that he was not directing his comments at referee Chris Butler but at a teammate, Patrick Carrigan.

Walsh said he was agitated and footage showed him gesticulating with his arms as the referee walked away. Walsh ran towards him. “I was just letting the referee know that I wasn’t talking to him at the time. I just said I was talking to Patty [Carrigan] - I was talking to Patty. He obviously blew another penalty for me talking but I wasn’t talking to him, I was talking to Patty.

”With me and Patrick we have a good bond and we are honest with each other. I would say it is pretty common with us and it is something I am working on.”

In other words, Butler has no idea if Walsh was talking to him or not.
