Well, well, well, time for memory recall ! A player called Brett Ferris may be playing for Donny ?
Will he be the usual - himself - a frustrated penalty machine, this was how Leeds saw him ?
I remember him being mawngy when at wakey & pleading for us to let him go to Car & be with his mates,
This he did & look what he did to his best mate, the rest is history !

I remember him coming to Trin as "the new Solomona", sadly, he never got close.
According to Wiki, he's 38 !

Tbf to him he’s a had a very solid career and represented England well imho. He was one of the best second rowers in SL in his time.

I think I get what you're trying g to say but as others have mentioned the interplay with the forwards running angles etc will come with firmer pitches.

He was ok but, nowhere near to Solomona though.
Mind you, that's not his fault.
Solomona still remains one of the best players that we've had at Trinity in the last 40 years.
The comparison should never have been made by the club.

I don't remember that comparison. Whoever made it didn't know either player.

But Ferris was a good player and played well for England.
He's old now so we really shouldn't be worrying about him but he's no mug.

Doncaster have a decidely senior nature to their squad. Ferres won't be 38 for a couple of weeks, but will still be four years younger than Misi Taulapapa. Then they have Sam Smeaton, Craig Hall, Suaia Matagi and Jason Tali, who are all 36.

Of course, the oldest player in the division remains the inexhaustible Paul Sykes, though I don't think he has played much for Dewsbury this year.

Did not rate him Solomona was class, in fact got rated best overseas player to have played for Wakefild in S L with W Poaching second ,A week after the vote Solomon's signed for Bradford ,and just after so did B Jeffris bringing the end of one of the better team we have had at Wakefield

Solomona is the best overseas player I’ve seen in my time of supporting Wakey, he was a NZ international while playing for us too. Literally unplayable at times.

Played in one friendly and first 1895 cup game against Keighley, copped a 1 match ban and not played since

One of the best New Zealand internationals never mind just playing for us.
Outstanding skills.

So who do we recognise from this then ?? I'll start with Aaron Murphy, Luke George and Glen Morrison. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLT_2gh ... eldTrinity

Team that day was

1 Josh Vievers
2 Josh Griffin
3 Luke George
4 Aaron Murphy
5 Luke George
6 Kieren Hyde
7 Tommy Lee
8 Paul King
9 Matty Wildie
10 Kyle Amor
11 Glenn Morrison
12 Frankie Mariano
13 Stuart Howarth

14 Michael Korkidas
15 Kevin Henderson
16 Craig Dean
17 James Davey

Luke George got around the pitch a bit then?

Obviously, he had to.

Lol. Sorry, Dale Morton on the wing.

I was wondering why he was in centre and not wing while I was typing.

Not a great season for us mainly caused by off field issues but we had some good players in that team.

Morrison in particular. Wish we'd had him in his prime.

Can’t forget Julian Rinaldi either.

We had some good players that although past there prime they were still of a good standard. Morrison was definitely one of those and another is Lauititi. He was back end of his career but the guy was class all over.

I’m probably most dissapointed with when we brought over that prop from nrl who looked the real deal but he only played a handful of games and went back. I think he ended up getting a neck injury soon after but he looked like he could have been top shelf. Can’t remember his name atm but it will come to me.

Shane Tronc?

Think that might have been my least favourite Super League season until last year. We played horribly, cycled through players, no attacking shape (remember Kieran Hyde?), and if I remember correctly we were in 14th or 13th position all year. Some great players named above, but they were knocking on and ready for a clear out. Sound familiar?

Kevin Penny, Jarrod Hickey Chris Dean to name a few. We did win in Catalan with this team of rag tag and bobtails.

That’s the one! Couldn’t think of his name.

Best memory from that season was beating Cas on Good Friday, came from about 20 points down at half time, was a great memory from a not so great season. From what I remember Kear unearthed a few gems as the season went on that nobody else really wanted with the likes of Paul Johnson and Mariano who turned out to be not half bad.
