Another nom d plume was “A Walker” turned out to be Olympic sprinter Berwyn Jones

Says on Wiki he was at Hunslet two seasons before joining us, how much you want to trust Wiki is up to you. But if he was registered to Hunslet then as far as I'm aware he couldn't play as an A N Other.

AN other i remember is paul curly brown played at don valley stadium v sheff and scored a hattrick

He was definitely a known player before he came to us.

He was definitely at Hunslet before he came, but I thought he'd joined in trial initially. I could be wrong though, it was 30 years ago. I've had a look at the programme and he's not named at all.

Don't think so. Andy Wilson was one though.

In those days you could trial for another club with the permission of your club if I remember correctly. We probably paid Hunslet a fee which they will gladly of taken.

Thinking about it I think he actually played against us in a preseason friendly and that’s when we signed him but as you say it’s a long time ago.

I’m pretty sure Jackson was an announced signing from Hunslet … I remember some of the discussion and speculation in the local press…

As for another’s I think Steve Diamond was such a trialist vs Cas on Brian Juliff’s debut

Back to todays game… are any local radio stations covering the fixture with commentary???

Following the game on Twitter but there have only been 12 updates/ posts on the Trinity feed during the first half… including two for each try

By comparison the Halifax feed has set by set updates… with a total of 31 updates during the first half

social media is a key part of modern comms… trinity need to do better

It’s a pre season friendly
