For a Super League top 5 I don't think anybody could argue with that. If it was 6 I would add Demetriou (who I originally slagged off as a poor signing!)

Hibernation over! I will go along with this - we must be of the same era Brian's Ghost! All great players- but it's a pity there's a limit of 5! Players like Ashurst and Price missed out.....!

If I were naming a Trinity favourites list from all my time watching and. Wanted a mixture of all the recognised skills in a team.

Bill Ashurst - Big (6'3" 16st 7lb) and imposing with sublime hands and a great kicking game

Andy Kelly - Big (6'4" 17st 7lb), Athletic, fast and powerfull, hit gaps at full pace and was unstoppable in his first stint as a Trinity player

Wally Lewis - Arguably THE best player ever to play the game. Unmatched passing game, great kicking game, just instinctively knew how to unlock defences

Keith Smith - Silky smooth player who had size and pace and time on the ball. Ghosted past defenders and had great hands for his wing man

Steve Ella - fast, elusive, deceptively strong, brave and had an unerring ability to slice between the best defenders.

Note: I've only seen footage of Neil Fox so can't include him
Honourable mention: Trevor Skerrett, Ray Price, David Solomona, Willie Poching,

It is a pity limit of 5.
Just to throw another 2nd row forward into mix how about Bob Haigh.

Quite hard to nail down a top 5 even though I only watched in the late 80's early 90's and then most of SL.

Danny Brough
Nigel Bell
Solomona
Ellis
Poching


Honorable mentions Ali,Demetriou, Domic, Morrison, Tim Smith, Kirmond and Amor

If they played more games for us I'd have thought about Wright, Henry Paul and maybe Shane Tronc as well.

One of my favourite players. There was so much more to come from him icon_sad.gif

Terry Newton was a great but sadly only played in a handful of matches before his sad passing
