Career
For the Pro12 2012-13 season, Walker started to play in the Ospreys first team, winning a place in the starting line up.
International
In April 2012 he was named in the Wales U-20 squad for the Junior World Cup in South Africa.
In January 2013 he was selected in the 35 man Wales squad for the 2013 Six Nations championship.
Walker made his full international debut in the starting line up for Wales versus Ireland on 8 August 2015. On September 8, 2015, Walker was chosen as a replacement for Leigh Halfpenny in the 2015 Rugby World Cup squad after Halfpenny suffered a knee injury in a warm up match against Italy. However Walker himself then had to withdraw with a hamstring injury and he was replaced by Ross Moriarty.
On 11 October, Liam Williams was ruled out of the World Cup having suffered an injury against Australia, and Walker re-joined the squad to replace him. He was allowed to re-join the squad, as he had been released from the team before Wales officially arrived in tournament. Walker's injury meant he would not be fit to play against South Africa, and could only represent Wales if they made it to the semi-final.
