Reece Walsh Deletes Rogue Video During Late-Night Hospital Visit
Scans confirmed the Broncos fullback needs surgery and is expected to miss four to six weeks, coach Michael Maguire said.
- On Saturday night, Fullback Reece Walsh suffered a suspected cheekbone fracture and concussion during the Brisbane Broncos' 26-12 victory over the Gold Coast Titans.
- The injury occurred while Walsh tackled Kurtis Morrin in the closing seconds of the first half; having fractured his cheekbone twice in 2023 and 2024, he faces an estimated four to six weeks sidelined.
- Brisbane skipper Adam Reynolds also sustained a groin strain and was replaced by Ben Hunt just before the half-hour mark, though the win moved the Broncos inside the top eight for the first time this season.
- Medical scans confirmed a broken cheekbone requiring surgery, and Walsh now enters the NRL's concussion protocol with an 11-day stand-down period, meaning he will miss Brisbane's next match.
- Coach Michael Maguire must reshuffle the squad to cover the loss of his biggest star, adding pressure with State of Origin looming and the Broncos navigating an inconsistent season.
