Greg Alexander's assessment of him seems to be that he doesn't quite believe in his own ability; if he did, he'd be a very, very good player. Kicking game excellent, but doesn't take on the line enough.
That can be coached, and let's face it, his confidence might well increase given the defences he'll be facing in SL.

Seems a potentially very useful signing, and even if he 'only' brings his great kicking game and organisational play, it's a vast vast improvement on what we have.
This thread sums up the reason I rarely post on here any more.
Far too many agendas to maintain, far too many people actually seeming to want the club to fail so they can post how wrong the club were to get rid of / keep hold of <insert name of player / coach>.

I don't think confidence can be coached as such. A person who struggles with their confidence can feel more confident if someone important believes in them but that can be a double edged sword. I'm concerned that he has been around the first team for six or seven years but still is unable to take on the line or consistently pull off good performances.

I don,t know why there are quite a few negative posters on here that have convinced themselves that Walsh is going to turn out a Dud. He,s an experienced scrum half something we have not had for 5 or 6 years, yes he may have had spells in drop in form quite a lot of players do in there career.
If we sign Walsh it would remind me of the similar scenario with Meli who was out of favour and had a drop in form, he came over here, rejuvenated his career......I see a similar situation with Walsh. Most important fact is that he has the experienced skills of a half back, something which is getting rarer these days.

I'm focussing on the 2011 player of the year award that he won. According to Wiki, they finished 12th in the table that year - so he can't have had an awful lot of time playing on the front foot to make things easier for him, which suggests he's no flat track bully.

I don't see any posts claiming that Walsh is a dud. Just some people being open minded rather than desperate.

| Good to see he reacted to being axed by putting in a massive performance when injury gave him his place back. 3 try assists and Cleary was full of praise.
Undoubtedly, there is a player in there. Saints have a good record of turning damaged goods into stars (and recently as good a record of turning stars into damaged goods!!) and Brown also has done great things with Brough, Robinson, and others.
Quietly confident.

I don't know what to make of that really. It looks like a gamble but maybe one we've got no choice in taking

| He looks decent on the youtube clips. I just hope the club have scouted him more thoroughly than that though. They simply have to get this one right.
The club could do with announcing this pretty soon. They need the PR of it.

| If he does arrive next season and he plays to his strength then we might be scoring more tries from kicks rather than ball in hand, not sure if that is a good thing.
Slight concern that a few reports mentions that he doesn,t take on the line so much lets hope he gets more opportunity in this magnificent superleague.

| I have just watched the panthers v roosters game and he seems like he will be a good solid signing for us. He lets the forwards do the work in his own half but then gets the ball on near enough every play in the opposition half.
His kicking game seems very good especially close to the opposition line. He loves a bomb and often finds the floor with more reserved kicks.
The only gripe with him is that today he didn't get tackled once and he just doesn't take the line on at all. However the commentary mentioned he took the line on quite a lot last week. Andrew johns in particular was extremely frustrated with his lack of taking the line on today.
I think he will be a good signing he is very similar to Dobson bar running with the ball and he seems like he is just what we need to organise and control our play.
