I'm just doing the best I can, I hope it pays off

After missing out on Grand Final selection last year, no one will be more desperate to gain a spot at Wembley than childhood Hull KR fan Jack Brown.

The hard-grafting prop has played his part in Willie Peters' squad ever since joining from city rivals Hull FC last May.

He scored off the bench in the recent 34-0 thrashing of Huddersfield Giants, his first try for the East Yorkshire club.

However, the combative 24 year-old has still yet to truly nail down a spot in the 17 when everyone is fit and firing.

That means he faces a nervous wait to see if he gets the nod for Saturday's big showdown with Warrington Wolves.

Brown insisted: "I haven't really thought too much into it. I've just been taking things week by week. What will be will be.

"As a local lad I'll just take it all and the build-up. I've been coming off the bench a lot recently and just doing my job, whether it's for five minutes or 25 minutes. I will always give 100 per cent and do whatever it takes for this team."
