Brisbane Broncos fans can rejoice with one of the most exciting talents the game has seen in the last few years in Reece Walsh re-signing with the club on a new long term deal.
Walsh’s new deal runs through until the end of the 2029 NRL season as he looks to add to his existing 74 games under new head coach Michael Maguire.
After somewhat of a turbulent offseason, Walsh has begun his preseason training early and is keen to get stuck into the preparations for the 2025 season.
It’s a special place here at the Broncos and I’m definitely happy to be staying here at the club with all my mates – it’s a good day,” Walsh said.
“I’ve wanted to play for the Broncos since I was a little kid, so I’m just really excited to be here and looking forward to getting into preseason and Round 1.”
Walsh is keen to make amends in 2025 and knows that his work both on and off the field are the keys to his success moving forward.
“I want to be someone who works hard, someone who brings success, someone who helps bring Premierships to this great club, but first of all I’ve got to be a good person off the field, a caring dad, a good role model and I’ve got to work hard on my footy,” Walsh continued.
“I’ve had a few conversations with Madge and hard work is one thing he touches on a lot – I can’t wait to be around the boys again and get stuck into it together.
Broncos CEO Dave Donaghy is obviously pleased that Walsh will stick around long term.
“It’s terrific news that Reece has re-committed to our club – he’s certainly proven himself to be an exciting player with plenty of potential,” Donaghy said.
“We’re proud of how Reece has grown from our Broncos Academy program up into our NRL roster and the State of Origin arena as well.
“Reece would have been in high demand, but he has now locked down his long-term future and he’ll play an important role in the team.”
