Career highlights | |
Tim Walsh (born 14 May 1985) is an Australian rules football player formerly of the Western Bulldogs. He was chosen in the 2002 AFL Draft at pick number 4 as a first round selection. Being 196cm tall, the Bulldogs recruited him because of his potential to hold down a key forward position. He wears the number 26 guernsey.
Walsh debuted in season 2005 but he suffered a finger injury and was forced to return to Werribee. He missed the whole of season 2006 because of a long term leg injury, at a time when the Bulldogs where in desperate need of some height.
The 2006 Record describes Walsh as a good prospect as a future key forward. However, Walsh was delisted by the Bulldogs following the 2007 AFL season after succumbing to injury again during the season and failing to gain a senior position.[1]
