Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on June 12, 1985)

Happy Birthday, Sam Thaiday! You're the only bloke we know who tackles birthdays with as much enthusiasm as you tackled opponents on the field. From your legendary debut with the Broncos in 2003 to your epic battles for Queensland and Australia, you've always been a champion—both at rugby and at making us laugh.

Whether it was your fearless runs, iconic hairstyles, or hilarious post-match interviews, you've given fans countless memorable moments. May this birthday be filled with fewer bruises than an Origin match and more laughs than a locker room prank. Cheers to another year of greatness—stay legendary!
