Melbourne's Ryan Papenhuyzen expected to miss NRL game due to injury, previously sidelined for ankle fracture.

Canberra Weekly

Luckless fullback Ryan Papenhuyzen is likely to miss Melbourne's NRL clash with Canberra on Saturday night due to another injury.

Papenhuyzen missed the Storm's captain run at AAMI Park on Friday after a heel issue kept him sidelined through the week, while skipper Harry Grant was a spectator after playing State of Origin.

Papenhuyzen was only one game back having missed five NRL matches with a right ankle fracture.

It was the same ankle he broke in week one of the finals against Brisbane last year, after he missed 13 months with a shattered kneecap.

Canberra Raiders prop Emre Guler has had a heart-to-heart with coach Ricky Stuart, but hasn't asked the club for a release on compassionate grounds and won't leave the club in the lurch.

The Raiders were intent on working closely with Guler and helping him however they could, but they're also mindful of not weakening their squad.

Guler, born and raised in Sydney, is contracted to the Green Machine until the end of 2025.
