Career[]

Hull reached the 2006 Super League Grand final to be contested against St. Helens, and Washbrook played at loose forward in his side's 4–26 loss.[4]

He signed a three-year deal at Super League club Wakefield Trinity, following Hull Coach Richard Agar.[citation needed]

On 4 May 2014, Washbrook made his 200th career appearance. His current club, Wakefield Trinity, beat his former club, Hull, on his milestone.[5]

On 13 August 2015 Hull re-signed Washbrook on a two-year deal, with coach Lee Radford saying he returns a better player than the last time he was at the club.[citation needed] Washbrook can play loose forward or cover Danny Houghton at hooker and cover in the centres despite not being a centre by trade.[citation needed]

He played in the 2016 Challenge Cup Final victory over the Warrington Wolves at Wembley Stadium.[6][7]

He played in the 2017 Challenge Cup Final victory over the Wigan Warriors at Wembley Stadium.[8]
