Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3530455, member: 9853"] Nah, he's actually pretty bland. I mean really fucking boring and utterly devoid of personality. You blokes just get sand up in your Huggies over him because he files 100,000 words a week on the Broncos, when in reality there's **** all but the usual cliches and platitudes to report. If it weren't for him it would be crickets in the printed press. You would have to make it up yourself. And we've seen how that pans out. Barely anyone else writes about us, and when they do it's the same histrionics and umbrage. No one here has a good word to say about anyone. Here's what Peter Fitzsimons had to say about Walsh: [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]"The Broncos and Queensland fullback has been mesmerising this year, displaying skills and speed that have left opponents standing, while also showing a very likeable side. And then we got to last weekend, clearly shouting at the ref in the Broncos match against the Gold Coast, “What the f--- do you mean, c---?” when a call went against him, before – [U]LUDICROUSLY [/U]– claiming he was saying it to his own team-mate Patrick Carrigan, not the ref."[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]"(For your amusement the case was blown apart when Walsh’s Queensland Origin team-mate David Fifita testified: “He said to the ref ... I mean Patty”.) [U]It was an ugly side of Walsh.[/U] The way forward?"[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT]"I am looking at you, Adam Reynolds. You are the senior player in the Broncos, respected by the lot of them as a fine man who has been around the block twenty times. Your job is to take Walsh out for a bite to eat and talk to him one-on-one. Tell him: mate, you have it all before you. Don’t blow it with this kind of carry-on. Play. Shut up. Concentrate. [I]Keep[/I] [I]growing[/I]. Give Walsh the correction he needs, that actually can’t come from the judiciary as much as their three-match suspension was warranted. It comes from senior players taking him in hand. You are the man."[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.smh.com.au/sport/adam-reynolds-is-the-man-to-help-save-wunderkind-reece-walsh-from-himself-20230630-p5dkp3.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
