Sam Walker is ruled out for the remainder of the season after ankle surgery, following an injury he sustained in a match against the Dolphins. Multiple outlets report that his condition has been assessed as severe enough to prevent a timely return.

All three reports describe the same sequence: Walker suffers the ankle injury during the Dolphins game, then subsequent medical confirmation leads to surgery and a season shutdown. The articles also identify him as Queensland Origin No.7, placing the injury within his representative profile.

While the sources agree on the core facts of the injury and outcome, they do not provide additional differing details such as specific timelines for recovery, the exact diagnosis, or club/league commentary. Coverage is largely centered on the confirmed result that surgery will keep him out for the season.
