The ‘unfortunate’ Ryan Papenhuyzen news shook Melbourne
The news that superstar fullback Ryan Papenhuyzen and center Reimis Smith will miss significant amounts of time due to injuries sustained in Sunday’s crucial victory against the Dragons has come as a double blow to the Melbourne Storm.
A hamstring tear and a posterior cruciate ligament injury to Papenhuyzen will keep him out for up to six weeks, according to news that affects more than just the Melbourne club.

Melbourne Storm performed an absurd accomplishment that hasn’t been seen in 87 years.
The fullback’s injury will once again ruin his chances of participating in State of Origin, despite the fact that his form as the Dally M leader has thrust him into the running for a spot on Brad Fittler’s NSW team.
Papenhuyzen was a member of the NSW squad in 2020, but a calf injury prevented him from competing for a spot, and he missed the previous season owing to persistent concussion symptoms.
It would take a miracle for the Storm fullback to recuperate in time to play in Game III of this year’s Origin series, which will take place in Brisbane on July 13 and will begin on June 8 in Sydney.
