PLAYER Reece Walsh

[Johnny92]

Is Walsh a better goal kicker than Reyno?

Since he is been out and taken the role I think he is tbh, especially since we score alot of wide trys and Walsh seems to get them alot more Reyno struggles lately on those.

This season I think Reynolds was carrying some sort of leg injury every game.
Walshys pretty good but if there's a kick from the sideline to win the game I'd be taking a fully fit Reynolds over Walsh at this stage.
Only a matter of time before Reece takes the duties though and smashes Parker's point scoring record.

So Billy Slater was asked about Kevvies comments a couple of weeks ago, regarding Walsh needing to take a "chill pill" Here was his response.

Billy Slater said:

“No, I want Reece Walsh, he will be him,” Slater said.

“He will be good.

“He is a wonderful player and we just want the best Reece Walsh that he can be.

“There’s no pills in our camp.”


Slater also said:

“It’s about the things you can outlay to your footy team and Reece brings a whole heap,” Slater said.

“I have really enjoyed working with Reece the last few years to be honest.

“I remember when he got his opportunity and he got injured in 2021, I came into camp and spent a day with him back then when Paul Green was the coach.

“It’s been a long journey and I have loved seeing the rise, not just the brilliant stuff he brings, but he has elevated his game and has good foundation to his footy now.

“I look forward to seeing him when he comes into camp and like everyone else getting to work.”

Oh so it’s a synonym for wanting to be a Coates.

So this article could also say he wants to be a Coates for life.

Locking in Walsh, Mam, Haas, Patty - people want to come play with that. Securing a generational talent like Walsh will be immense for us keeping players on unders and luring talent. Please be true.

Didn't Coates say the same thing.

Next minute, Coates announces he signed with the Storm.

What we need to look for next is Walsh saying that being coached by Bellamy has appeal.

One of the questions asked to Walsh was seriously "is it because you have unfinished business, I know you said there are special things you want to do at Brisbane, but why would you want to stay here"

Wouldn't know. More having a giggle at the number of players that declare bronco for life, then sign very soon for another club. Xavier Coates stands out. There's been a couple other kids do the same in recent history.

Walsh will do what's in his best interests. If that happens to be in the Broncos best interests, so be it. But don't think for a second that Walsh or any other player the NRL will put a club first.

It's not a slight on any player, it's just the reality of 2024. Loyalty died decades ago. If the Broncos have the best situation for Walsh, he resigns. If the Rooster's have the best situation, he's a Rooster. Life's life.

Right so then I guess we can write Badel’s next gossip column for him:

Walsh to the Roosters from 2026 on 2.7 million a year off the books, 300k on the books.
