The sixth-placed Broncos are currently missing halfback Adam Reynolds and five-eighth Ezra Mam due to injury, resulting in Ben Hunt moving to halfback and Walters to the five-eighth position.

Walters has previously played at five-eighth in the NRL, but has been plying his trade as a dummy half over the past few seasons.

Meanwhile, since 2021, Walters has bought a series of properties in Queensland, located in Chermside West, Redbank Plains and Harristown.

Walters has now listed the three-bedroom, two-bathroom Chermside West house for sale.

Cotality records indicate Walters bought the property in March 2021 with wife Rachel for $671,000.

"Outdoor entertaining will be a breeze, thanks to the large covered deck featuring external lighting, ceiling fans, and power points."

The home also features air conditioning, timber flooring, a decorative fireplace, casement windows, roller blinds, and a bank of sliding glass doors.
