Brisbane coach Kevin Walters has lashed out at the NRL for not charging Penrith’s Taylan May for the head clash that ruled Reece Walsh out for up to six weeks. Scans have confirmed Walsh sustained a fractured face in the 34-12 loss to Penrith, leaving the Broncos superstar unable to fly home. The injury comes at the worst possible time for the Broncos, who could now be without three of their most important players against North Queensland next Friday.
Walters said he would contact the NRL over the issue, fearing players would take the superstar fullback out again in the future. “I’m certainly not a sore loser. But what I am very strong on is the protection of our players,” Walters said. “If this is let go, next time Reece Walsh comes back on the field what are they going to do again?” The injury means Walsh joins Payne Haas on the sideline for at least the next month, while Adam Reynolds is also sidelined with his own knee issue.
