Sam’s Warrington enjoy 20-12 win against Tom’s Huddersfield in latest twist of the family tale
For more than a decade rugby league’s most famous family were synonymous with one club and one club alone: South Sydney Rabbitohs. But these days the story of the Burgess brothers is being told back home in England – and the latest intriguing chapter began in the slightly murkier surroundings of Huddersfield.
Sam, George, Tom and Luke made history in 2013 when they all played in the same Souths side in the National Rugby League, together, they all achieved success in Australia, albeit to varying degrees. But never before have the brothers squared off against one another, a situation Sam and Tom encountered for the first time on Super League’s opening weekend.
