Ryan McQueen was a young pup the last time West Belconnen Warriors won the Canberra Raiders Cup.
It was 2016, the fullback revelling in a victory that made winning seem easy.
The West Belconnen captain-coach was outstanding in Sunday's 38-24 grand final victory over Queanbeyan Blues. The fullback was named man of the match after scoring a try and directing his side with aplomb.
