Reece Walsh has cemented his status as the 'Justin Bieber of rugby league', leaving England in tatters. The 23-year-old full-back's antics on and off the pitch are drawing comparisons to a pop star, with Australian Rugby League Commission chairman Peter V'landys likening him to an American sporting icon.
Walsh is a one-man show for Australia, displaying his exceptional speed and skill that has England reeling. His defensive play was instrumental in limiting English attacks, while his attacking prowess saw him score two crucial tries in the 26-6 victory.
But Walsh's fame extends beyond the rugby pitch. He often takes to the field with painted nails, bonding with his four-year-old daughter Leila, and has been known for his unconventional antics on social media. A recent video showed him drinking water from a toilet bowl, joking that it helped his muscle recovery after games.
Despite being compared to a pop star, Walsh is first and foremost a footballer, who takes pride in defensive plays more than scoring tries. When asked if England had studied how to prevent Walsh's impact in the next match, coach Shaun Wane admitted they did but were unsuccessful.
Walsh has become a nightmare to face for opponents, yet someone you always want on your side. Australia team-mate Cameron Munster described him as a "special talent" who will only get better, which is unsettling for England ahead of two more tour dates with the enigmatic full-back at the helm.

! He's got skills on and off the field that are just wow. I mean, painted nails on the pitch? That's some next level stuff 
. But seriously, his defensive play was insane and limited England big time.
. His talent and work ethic are what make him a nightmare for opponents. I'm kinda curious to see how the next match goes, will England find a way to stop him?
. Like, Cameron Munster saying he's a "special talent" - that's some serious hype right there 
. But for real though, can't wait to see more of Reece Walsh in action!
! The way he's dominating on and off the pitch is everything I need in a sports star! His confidence and charisma are infectious, I love how he's not afraid to be himself and show his personality through social media 
. And can we talk about that water from the toilet bowl trick? 
. Who wouldn't want that energy and enthusiasm on the pitch?! The fact that their coach said England tried to study him but came up empty is just proof of how unstoppable he is 
he's so fast and skillful, england was getting destroyed out there 
and shes got to be top player in the tournament now
! Can't wait for the next match against England - let's hope Walsh keeps delivering and we get another drubbing 
!
he's definitely making waves in the rugby league scene! I mean, who wouldn't want to watch a pop star on the pitch? But seriously, his defensive skills are giving me major respect – the guy's like a superhero out there 
I'm just glad England isn't getting destroyed too badly – at least they got some tries in 
.
?
, but Walsh is just that good right now. I'm loving the Aussie team's vibes - they seem so cohesive and exciting to watch! 
His defensive skills are insane and he's got Australia's backs covered. England's trying to figure out how to stop him, but Walsh is like a puzzle they just can't solve. And his team-mates are all like "he's special" which is scary for the opposing teams 
I'm kinda rooting for Australia now, Walsh is that good!

It's like he's a mixed martial artist on steroids or something! But seriously, England just got schooled by this kid, and it's not just because of his speed – it's because he's actually a solid player who knows what he's doing. So yeah, let's not be too hard on them for getting beat up by the Aussie squad just yet 
. I'm curious to see how England adapts for the next match. Do they try to isolate him or just hope he has an off day? 
One thing's for sure, Walsh is making a name for himself in rugby league, and it's hard to deny his talent 
️ – he's like a one-man show out there 
. And let's be real, who wouldn't want a full-back with four-year-old daughter Leila as their mini-me 
?

, but Walsh is just being his fabulous self
