Broncos star Reece Walsh had to make another dash to the hospital this week after injuring himself at home.
Code Sports reports the 23-year-old scraped his foot in the backyard and presented to hospital on crutches, with his left foot wrapped in a bandage dressing on Monday afternoon.

The Broncos No. 1 was spotted at Wesley Hospital with his daughter Leila, with coach Michael Maguire confirming he had a mishap while doing yard work at his home.
“Reece is fine,” Maguire told Code Sports.
“He got a cut to his foot walking around in the yard at home, but it’s nothing serious, which is good news.”
Walsh’s latest hospital trip comes a fortnight on from his surgery to fix a broken cheekbone suffered while trying to tackle Titans forward Kurtis Morrin.
It was the third facial fracture of Walsh’s career after previous incidents in both 2023 and 2024.
Walsh faces four to six weeks out and is hoping to return for Brisbane’s Round 10 clash with Manly on May 9.
That would give the superstar fullback two games ahead of the first State of Origin clash on May 27.
It is believed the gash on his foot won’t see him return any later either, with it being described as not as bad as it looks.
The Broncos take on the Tigers on Saturday night at 7.45pm at Campbelltown Sports Stadium.
