In his youth, Rylands played as a fly-half with his style of play being reminiscent of a young Dan Carter, apparently. Moving into senior rugby, Rylands embraced the culture and forged an established place within the second team, it was with this, Rylands fast feet caught the eye, not on the rugby pitch but on the dance floor as he rolled to proud mary, it was a eureka moment, the fast feet and Andy Goode physique coming together as we discovered the Irish, Jonah Lomu and this was evident on his maiden appearance on the wing, for the first team, running 65 metres with five players on his back to score the opening try of the season, and not forgetting the several spectacular offloads, resulting in a MOTM performance on debut, big things to come from mini Enda.
