Ryan Papenhuyzen's standout performance has propelled him into the conversation for Blues Origin selection.
In a recent game, he scored a first-half hat-trick and set a record with four tries and 10 goals, totaling 36 points-breaking Matt Geyer's 1999 record of 34.
Melbourne Storm's 64-0 victory against Wests Tigers marks their equal-highest winning margin in history.
The current competition for the fullback position in the NSW team is fierce, with players like incumbent Dylan Edwards, the exceptional James Tedesco, and the versatile Latrell Mitchell all making strong cases for selection.
Papenhuyzen, who started as a utility player, expressed readiness to take on a bench or dummy-half role for his state if needed.
As Blues fans eagerly anticipate squad announcements, Papenhuyzen's remarkable achievements highlight his potential to don the iconic jersey and contribute significantly to the team's success.
