It was a year of personal wins for Josh King in his first season in the purple jersey.
King showcased his abilities straight out of the gate, earning the Iron Bar in pre-season - awarded to the hardest working participant in the Club’s pre-season IDQ camp.
His grit continued into the season where he made an early Storm debut, inducted as player #219 ahead of Round 1 of the 2022 season. Playing a reliable role starting at lock, his first try for Storm quickly followed in Round 4.
Named in Craig Bellamy’s run-on side in 16 of his 26 appearances, King rounded out the remainder of his consistent season off the bench, becoming the only Storm squad member to play every game of 2022.
In Round 23, the forward celebrated his 100th NRL game and is sure to reach many more milestones as he continues on this trend.
King’s workmanlike style saw him finish in second place for tackles at the club in 2022 with 716. A 93.4% tackle efficiency sees him aim up as a key cog in the Storm defensive line.
King’s efforts for the year did not go unnoticed with the forward recently named in the Australian Men’s Prime Minister’s XIII squad to face Papua New Guinea on September 25.
