After just seven NRL appearances, Reece Walsh has been thrust into the Origin arena... What's your take on his selection? 🤔

For - NRL.com senior journalist Martin Lenehan

Walker has just turned 19, Walsh is 19 in July and Suaalii is still six weeks shy of his 18th birthday, but all three have shown maturity beyond their years as they embark on careers that most believe will be long and successful. Another insipid performance like the one dished up in the series opener simply won't be tolerated and it's against this backdrop that Walsh takes his first steps onto the game's most demanding stage.Will he put a couple down and be looking for a hole to climb into? Perhaps.And that's what makes the kid special. The fact that he's a risk-taker makes him worth the risk.

Reece can't do any worse than game 1s clowns can he? Good luck young fella

Age is just an illusion, it's all about your strength & mind's synergy. If you can concentrate enough it's 'just another' footy, he'll show his talents🥳

Too soon …cleary will have him in tatters

Give the kid a chance. We’ve won enough origins for the next decade. We need to blood depth now. Even if it costs us a few

My take:

Worried for him , mentally and physically...

If youre good enough, you're old enough. Lets see how he goes first before passing comment hey. Muppets on twitter as usual

Stupidity! He is no where near ready for origin He will get smashed

He’s ready 👍🏻👊🏻

Nsw did something similar in 2008 thrusting a 19 year old Mitchell Pearce into a decider, almost worked.

Makes sense

Desperate

NRL breaks silence on ‘absolute travesty’The NRL’s head of football Graham Annesley has admitted Cowboys hooker Reece Robson should not have been sin-binned in the shadow of full-time against the Sharks on Friday. Both were bad. Taukeiaho’s 10 in the bin ruined what could’ve been a great match. Should be like in cricket - no ball for height measured against “striker standing upright at popping crease”. Same with league, Sio Siua’s tackle hits Cleary in the ribs if he doesn’t slip.
