Melbourne Storm<\/a> star Ryan Papenhuyzen<\/a> is set to make his long-awaited return to the field after a knee injury.<\/p>\n

Papenhuyzen, who has been sidelined since round 18 last year, will make his return \ufeffthrough the Q Cup on Saturday when he lines up for the Sunshine Coast Falcons.<\/p>\n

It will be the dashing Storm fullback's first on-field action in 384 days.<\/p>\n

\ufeff"It hasn't really sunk in yet so I'm sort of just going through the training week and trying to prepare like it's a normal game," Papenhuyzen said.<\/p>\n

\"Ryan<\/p>\n

"It's just been a while between drinks. It's had its ups and downs and setbacks, and it's probably taken a little bit longer than expected but at the same time I'm happy I did that.<\/p>\n

"There are so many people to thank, and I'll probably save that for another day, but I think it's a big milestone and I need to celebrate the small wins along the way, and this is another one of them.<\/p>\n

"It's a big step to be back after such a significant injury. I want to be playing NRL, so I have a little bit to go to achieve the goals I want \u2013 I've just got to keep doing the work."<\/p>\n

The Storm will be hoping Papenhuyzen's return goes smoothly as they eye an NRL return for the \ufeff25-year-old.<\/p>\n

While Papenhuyzen won't be taking the NRL field this weekend, plenty of others will be.<\/p>\n
