Ray Price stands out for me above all others, his heart was as big as they come, imagine the impact had we managed to secure him earlier on before his first retirement. Would have loved to see him stay on as coach.

Solomona at his peak was unplayable and had skills that I havent seen for anyone else in a Trinity shirt, so he would be my first choice.
JD - Trinity Legend
Ray Price- Tackling machine and as hard as nails

Always thought Nigel was from Wakey mate. icon_wink.gif

He was from (Far) Eastmoor icon_biggrin.gif

Should have read the thread title icon_surprised.gifops:

In that case I'll go for Ray Price instead of Belly.

I can’t see past Solomona, by far and away the most exciting import. Single handed lay turned us from perennial relegation fodder to top six in one season!

Also the only overseas player I can recall opposition fans being truly envious of.

Also won a WC medal whilst a Trinity player. Incredible player, he’d tranform this team from good to exceptional.

Never forget the "hit" by Ray Price on that Cas savage (I've forgotten his name), that left him staggering around BV as if he'd just taken 15 pints on board.

Might be wrong but I think you might be mixing games up.

Ron Gibbs was the Cas player polaxed on Scrumdown staggering around like a drunk, think it may be on YouTube - pretty sure that wasn’t Price though, think it was an attempted tackle on Eden.

The tackle I think you may mean was at Fev on Boxing Day when Ray smashes Jeff Grayson who was even older than him - think the guy had been mouthing in the papers pre match. He was carried off the pitch if I recall.

Those were the days.
Post Office Road rammed full on Boxing Day (or New Years Day) and half the crowd would still change ends at half time icon_biggrin.gif
Even though I wouldn't want to go back to the winter game, we've definitely lost something (apart from frostbite) since the change.
Brendon Tuuta may be the player that you're thinking of ?

No it's definitely Grayson but he probably did Tuuta that day as well, he was on fire in that game and really turned back the years. icon_biggrin.gif

This world was never meant for one as beautiful as me. WTRLC 2012 to 2014 "The wasted years" Magic Weekend "Whipping Boys" 2013, 2014 & 2015 2017 - The year the dream disappeared under Grix's right foot. 2018 - The FinniChezz Bromance 2019 - The return of the Prodigal Son. 2020 - Keeping the faith.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_2597.jpg



The Ronnie "Rambo" Gibbs collision with Phil Eden's hip was a classic moment (right up there with Johnny Tompson's "I like it hard"icon_wink.gif. The credits at the end of the programme replayed Gibbs staggering about with Wishing on a Star playing.

Maybe the old brain cells deteriorating Vasty, but I was convinced that it was Ray Price and a Cas player at Belle Vue.
