WALKING out at Wembley Stadium for a Challenge Cup Final is something only a select group of players get to do.

Doing so side by side with your brother is even rarer but that is set to happen for George and Toby King this weekend.

While 21-year-old prop George has been a regular off the interchange bench this season, 20-year-old centre Toby has enjoyed a run in the first team of late and was on the scoresheet twice in the 56-12 semi-final demolition of Wakefield Trinity Wildcats.

Warrington Guardian:

The King clan arrived in Leigh en masse last month to see the brothers play and both say appearing together at Wembley will be their proudest moment.

“Everyone in the family is buzzing, a lot of them came to the semi final and mum couldn’t stop screaming and jumping up and down,” said Toby.

“To play in the semi-final together was a special moment but if we can get on together at Wembley it will be extra special.”

George added: “It will be a special moment for our family that’s for sure. All the lads who have been before have been telling us about these type of moments and how special it is and it just makes you want to be a part of it even more.

“Nothing will beat seeing it with my own eyes I’m sure, especially with all the Warrington fans who will be there singing their hearts out for us.”

George and Toby have spent most of their tender years playing together, including in their formative years at Meltham All Blacks near Huddersfield.

Challenge Cup Final day has always held a special place in the King household and both brothers have their own experiences of the showpiece.

“Our dad was a coach at Meltham as well and we had a few cousins playing with us so it was a close family team we had,” said George.

“I think we first started playing together when we were seven or eight years old. There is a photo at home of us with our scrum hats on and smiling away.

“We used to sit and watch the Challenge Cup Final on the TV as a family and hang on every word Jonathan Davies said.”

Toby added: “I remember kicking a ball around together on Meltham Rec, kicking a drop goal and pretending to do some commentary saying ‘Toby King has won the Challenge Cup Final with a late drop goal’.

“It really is the stuff you dream about as a kid.

“We went down to watch a Challenge Cup Final with mum and dad, it was Huddersfield against St Helens when the final was at Twickenham (in 2006).

“We always imagined maybe playing for Huddersfield in a cup final but now we are both at Warrington it’s an honour to play for them.”

Far removed from their days turning out for Meltham and Siddal, the brothers are currently in the midst of their own personal Challenge Cup try-scoring battle.

George’s hat-trick against Oldham in the sixth round puts him 3-2 ahead despite Toby’s tries in the semi final, but he says he would trade that for a winner’s medal any day.

Warrington Guardian:

“It’s good to have a bit of brotherly banter going on,” said George.

“But at the end of the day it’s about us two playing well and the team playing well. If we score tries then brilliant but I’d rather stay off the scoresheet if it meant we got the win.”
