Brothers in same team.

[Wigan Riversider]

Alker brothers at Wigan St Patricks ARLFC.

Two of the 4 were at Salford at the same time but not sure if they played together, Malcolm and Marlon.

Mumby,

          An old one for you, straight after the war Bradford Northern signed a Welsh lad Gwylfor Jones, around two years later they signed his brother Wynne. They played together at Northern unti the mid fifties.

Gwylfor and Wynne Jones. 

[Mumby Magic]

I think Darren Simpson and Roger may have crossed over at Northern/Bulls

Workington have had 3 sets of twins play for them :-

Billy & Dennis Martin 

Billy & Bobby Pattinson 

Craig & Martin Stalker 

Plus numerous sets of brothers as already mentioned in this thread. Rob & Shaun Lunt being one not already mentioned.

Was there another Pattinson brother - Malcolm who played a few games? Or was he a cousin?

There were a number of times both Bobby and Billy played in the same team, and a number of mis-identifications of some misdemeanors! Billy was the more 'mischievous' shall we say, and Bobby took the blame a few times, whilst Billy was grinning like a Cheshire Cat

Kyle & Josh White

There must have been quite a few brothers/half brothers with different surnames, although I can't think of any?

The closest I can get is former Dewsbury championship winning coach Tommy Smales and his brother Trevor Bailey while they were at Fev, although Trevor was in the juniors at the time. He never got to play professionally due to a serious knee injury and went into coaching, ending up as first team coach at Wakefield, and later Scarborough pirates.

[Father Ted]

Did the Simpson brothers play for Wakefield?

 

[ipods4ever]

Tony and Chris Hilton Rochdale Mayfield and Rochdale hornets 

[Hullfan]

I played in my amateur days in the same team as 5 brothers 

[ivans82]

Same time as Billy and Bobby Pattinson played for Town i think they had a Brother called Stan who was a good Clubman also .

[Treize Hombres]

Australians Greg and Tony Austin played for Rochdale in the mid 80s. Greg later played for Salford if my memory serves correctly.

[headtackle]

Seem to recall a couple of Van Bellens at Bradford in the late 70s early 80s

[Mumby Magic]

Did lee and shane hansen play together

[HKR AWAY DAYS]

Adam and Johnny Walker both played in the same Hull KR side but the less said about them two wrong uns the better...

[tim2]

Izaac and Joel Farrell are in the current Sheffield Eagles team.

Is there something about having the name Farrell that condemns you to being a rugby player?

[Route66]

Jimmy and Kenny Green at Carlisle, also Gary and Tony Peacham and possibly Gary and Paul Murdoch

That’s right Stan was also on the books but wasn’t really a first team player.

[Gooleboy]

Cyril and Dave Kellett at Featherstone.

[Bondi Cannon]

John, Joe, Tea, Iva and Peter Ropati played together twice in the same Mangere East team in 1991. A sixth brother, Romi, played rugby union. 

[Red Willow]

Salford had the Flymo bothers playing together. Esne and Jo Famailo

The Walne Bothers and I think the Adamson brothers may have played together too

[Gooleboy]

Also at Featherstone we had Neil, Robin and Simon Tuffs.

Second generation of Farrell brothers their dad Anthony had 2 brothers Carlton and Andrew at Fartown at the same time.Around the same times there were the St Hilares Lee and Marcus (Junior) and a third brother at Halifax there may have been a fourth

[Agbrigg]

Just waiting to get this one in as no one as yet picked up on it yet.

In the mid 60,s I remember a hull team come to wakey and the great Clive Sullivan played on one wing and his brother b.sullivan was on the other wing. Infact they looked like twins. They both had lightening pace and I seem to think one of them scored that day.

[Leyther_Matt]

Luke & Toby Adamson and Iain & Andy Thornley all played together for Leigh last season.
