Professional Career
On 18 March, Walsh signed a three-year contract with the New Zealand Warriors, beginning in 2022.On 10 April, he was released early from his Brisbane contract to join the New Zealand Warriors immediately.On 25 April, in round 7 of the 2021 NRL season, Walsh made his first grade debut for the New Zealand Warriors against Melbourne.
In May 2021, Walsh confirmed his allegiance to Queensland and Australia over New Zealand.It was confirmed on 21 June 2021 that Walsh had been selected to play as fullback for the Queensland Maroons for the second game of the State of Origin series at Suncorp Stadium on 27 June 2021. At 19, he is the youngest player to be selected in the Queensland team since Ben Ikin in 1995.
In round 23, Walsh had a disappointing afternoon with the goal kicking duties only managing to convert one goal from five attempts, including a conversion attempt near the touch-line late in the game which would likely have sent the game against Brisbane into extra-time. New Zealand lost the match 24-22 which effectively ended their already slim chance of reaching the finals.
Controversy
On 25 September 2021, a video emerged of Walsh being arrested by police at a Surfers Paradise nightclub. The following day, Walsh fronted the media and said that he had failed a previous move on order by the police. He then went on to say “I didn’t move on. That led to me getting arrested and taken back to the police station.
Once I got back to the police station I got searched and I was in possession of a small bag of cocaine – which I had some during the night.“No-one else is involved in this. It is solely on me. I put my hand up – I should never have done it. It is a mistake I made. I want to say sorry to sponsors, fans, the Warriors”.
