Rugby fans in Sandbach will be keen to see a familiar face in the England squad against Wales in the Six Nations this weekend.

Flanker, Ben Curry, is replacing his twin brother flanker, Tom Curry, in Saturday's match in Cardiff.

Both players went to Sandbach School in Crewe Road briefly and are familiar faces in the South Cheshire town.

Both rugby stars attended Sandbach School briefly.

Sadly Tom, who like his brother, Ben, plays for Sale Sharks,  has a leg issue and has been withdrawn from this weekend's squad.

We wish Ben Curry luck on Saturday and hope his twin brother returns soon from injury.
