King vows to battle back after homecoming horror

- DAVE CRAVEN

HUDDERSFIELD new boy George King has relived his "horrible" training ground accident - but vowed: "I'll be back."

The Ireland captain suffered a catastrophic ankle injury last week in one of his first pre-season sessions since joining up from Hull KR.

Prop King, 29, now faces five months on the sidelines and is unlikely to make his debut for his hometown club until April.

The ex-Warrington star said: "It was only my third training session with the club. I was still getting into the swing of things when my foot planted on the surface and my body went in a different direction.
