Greatest Sporting Siblings
Who are they?
Top level sport, any sport at all. Factor in the sport's popularity if you so choose. Obvious ones would be the Williams sisters and the fighting Klitzchkos (or however you spell it). Any others compare with those?

The Waughs in Cricket
The De Boers or Laudrups in footy?

Jackie & Bobby Charlton have to be up there. Both world cup winners; the latter arguably the greatest ever English footballer and still England's leading international goalscorer & the former a properly psychotic centre-half who booted anything for over twenty years and twice took Eire to WC quarter-finals as manager.

Given that Michael is overwhelmingly regarded as being the better of the two Laudrups, I can't even begin to imagine how good he must have been as his younger brother was pretty special. I've no idea why Ronald de Boer graced the SPL for 4 years (well, I do, his knees were ****ed) - he was outstanding on his game as well. |

The Charltons obviously in football. Still the only two with World Cup winning medals. Yet I'd disregard both on the fact of the club sides they played for. So the Van Der Kerkhof's obviously better.
Chappells too. For differing sports the Comptons and Marshes too.
