Reece Walsh has vowed he won’t be gun shy in game two of the State of Origin series and revealed he had forgiven Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii for the high shot that rubbed him out of game one. The Maroons fullback was treated like a rock star by fans in Toowoomba on Tuesday where he trained strongly ahead of next Wednesday’s showdown with NSW at the MCG. Walsh, 21, was concussed in the seventh minute of Queensland’s 38-10 win in Sydney after a high shot by Suaalii, who was sent off.
“I know how much it means to the people of Queensland and past players. They need a team that is willing to put their body on the line and do whatever for their state. If I was scared or shy in any way I would pull myself out.” Walsh missed two NRL games for Brisbane due to the mandatory 11-day stand down for concussion but said he felt fine now. He was just happy that Billy Slater picked him at fullback again after Maroons centre Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow switched to No.
