205: Ryan Papenhuyzen (Part B)

From idolising others, to becoming the idol. Ryan Papenhuyzen grew up as a Rugby League tragic, he could only dream of winning a Premiership, and he has lived it and is now setting an example for the next generation of footy players.

He is a switched on, charismatic, perfectly self-aware, hardworking and an unbelievably resilient athlete. 

From growing up in Kellyville in Sydney, arriving at the Melbourne Storm, learning under Billy Slater, winning a Premiership as a 22-year-old, a crushed kneecap, a dislocated ankle and returning to the top level.
