Brisbane Broncos fullback Reece Walsh showcased his genius playmaking abilities in a thumping victory over the Wests Tigers, despite facing criticism for his earlier form.

The Broncos secured a 46-24 win, with Walsh's pivotal moment coming in the second half as he set up a try for his teammate Jesse Arthars with a perfectly placed cut-out pass.

The victory, however, was marred by a setback for veteran halfback Adam Reynolds, who limped off with a hamstring injury after scoring a superb solo try.

Reynolds remained optimistic about the injury, stating, "It just tightened up and I didn't want to risk anything." Meanwhile, Broncos skipper Ben Hunt also played a crucial role in the comeback, with Xavier Willison scoring two tries and Reynolds kicking a field goal to secure a slender lead at halftime.

Despite the Tigers' efforts to reduce the deficit, the Broncos ultimately broke the game open with Walsh's strategic play.

Walsh keenly observed an opportunity to exploit a gap on the wing, leading to Arthars' untouched try.

Reynolds' injury will require further assessment through scans to determine the extent of his absence from the team.

The Broncos will hope for a swift recovery for the influential halfback while celebrating a convincing victory led by Walsh's game-changing moment.
