Storm fullback Ryan Papenhuyzen to miss first two months of NRL season with ankle injury
Ankle injury update given by the Storm official football director
Papenhuyzen suffered the injury in the Melbourne Storm's 22-20 victory over the Titans at Cbus Super Stadium on Saturday night.
The extent of the injury is still being determined, but the Storm expect Papenhuyzen to miss the first two months of the 2024 NRL season.
This is a major blow for the Storm, who are already without Jahrome Hughes (knee) and Cameron Munster (hamstring).
Papenhuyzen is one of the most exciting players in the NRL, and his absence will be a big loss for the Storm.
The Storm are hopeful that Papenhuyzen will be back on the field in time for the Origin series.
