5 little brothers who could become better than their older siblings

Joseph, from Newbury, Somerset, followed in the footsteps of his brother, England and Bath Rugby centre Jonathan ‘JJ’ Joseph, towards a career in professional rugby by signing with London Irish’s academy. Will, who is an outside centre, has also played in all the England U18 league matches, crossing for several tries.

A very exciting prospect, he recently recieved his first England call-up before committing his future to the Exiles.

The much younger brother of the current England captain, Gabriel is wanting to follow in the footsteps of his sibling and Father, Andy Farrell. The Ireland head coach has revealed Gabriel is 'ahead of where Owen was at the same age' and is constantly practicing goal kicking. It sounds like he is rapidly developing into a fine young rugby player.

The versatile 17-year-old back, who has a big reputation, is making a name for himself on the south coast. Currently plying his trade with the Exeter Chiefs U18, he is certainly a name to watch out for in the future.

The younger brother of fellow Wasps first-team star Jack, Tom made his Premiership debut against Saracens in October 2017 and has really impressed of late. The 21-year-old really impressed in the 2019 World Rugby Under 20 Championship in Argentina – scoring three tries, including an 80th-minute match-winner against Ireland. Could easily become better than Jack.

Phil, who like his brother has kicked off his career at London Irish, made his European and Premiership debut in the 2019/20 season. The centre also made appearances in the Premiership Rugby 7s competition at the beginning of the campaign.

He's now opted to join Leicester Tigers following his breakthrough season with the Exiles.
