Mods...might be time to lock this? I started it, so can I request that? Time for us all to move on. Hope the kid kills it in origin also.

Fair enough...and I will keep reading it 🙂
I just needed to ease my guilt when it gets dragged up for the next five years every time Pap does something big 🙂

We can lament all we like but he seems a great kid, great talent and will have a long career with the Storm if he wants.
As far as the decision for the Wests Tigers regarding the Papenhuyzen decision, there are no guarantees that Papenhuyzen would have enjoyed the same start to his career if he stayed with us and became our full time fullback.

Yep it would like roosters claiming They made Tedesco.
Storm made. Papz who he is which should be the story

I hope one day a Blockbuster movie is made of Papi’s incredible rise above adversity, and in the face of constant negative criticism. Tremendous courage by the young man.
@TheDaBoss said in [The Papenhuyzen decision\.\.\.](/post/1253351) said:Btw in case people had forgotten, that play by paps to keep the ball in is not the first time he had done it,
In fact he did it against us last year, if you rewatch the highlights of that game

A lot of success is built because of people being told what they can’t do. Often seen as a challenge they can’t walk away from. As such, it is possible that the true catalyst for Papi’s success lies first and foremost with Eels and WT.
