Lockyer in the 90s was the best fullback, and arguably the best player, of all time with no weaknesses to his game so it's a bit tough on Walsh to compare the two.
That's not actually true.
when Lockyer first became fullback, he was thought to be a terrible defender ... obviously the attacking and game playing parts of his game made up for this weakness.
Hell, it was years before he was ever thought to be a somewhat competent defender at the back. at no point in his career was he ever considered a good defender.
