Think he did a season with saints but was'nt up to it, He came from Leigh around the same time as Phil Fox and Foxy did'nt get on with him Because he did the dirty on the lads at Leigh! Ran off with a bit of money i recall.

:O

All three great.

Steve Halliwell......."markers work!"

drove to warrington 82/83, broke down on the top of the hill, fixed it, arrived with 5 to go, got inside, snow came fluttering down, the announcer said no 11, Lindsay Gill
and the crowd went "who"
Wally's minder? was he in the snowball fight at headingley, I am sure he got sent off somewhere along the line.

Can never remember Chris Perry being anything other than below average. Still have the Wakefield v Australia game on DVD in which he was the stand out poorest player on the pitch. Only other things I can recall of note were that he played for Ackworth before we signed him, he got sent off in a crucial game for tripping someone and he got carried off on a stretcher once when his poor tackling technique got him kneed on the head by Bright Sodje.

Am I right in thinking he let the ball bounce in the in goal area then watched as it bounced back over his head into the arms of a waiting Aussie to score or is my mind playing tricks on me?

dennis beecraft (think he was an aussie from 1997 squad) - my first full year of supporting the mighty trin.

adrain brunker was a great aussie centre !

Remember that game well and Bright Sodje drove the whole crowd berserk by kneeing somebody in the head every time he took the ball in ! not saying it was deliberate he was just clueless at the time and referee gave him the benefit of the doubt, but he caused chaos and several injuries that day,improved with coaching but he should never have been allowed to stay on the field.Crowd where I was stood would have lynched him given half a chance

Didnt think Halliwell was an aussie - but he did a=bat for the other side!!

Dennis Beecroft - drank plenty in his pub.

What about the famous 80's wingers - Greg Lennon (Ran in the olympics for Australia) but we never gave him the ball and the Aussie rules convert Klein? Who was huge!!

Brad Waugh was another tough aussie and Adams? I'll have to dig out my 1981-1985 autograph book.

Halliwell deffo was an Aussie

Freddie Banquet another good import not sure if spelt correctly

Russel Klein only Adams i can think of was Butch and he was English, Anyone said Troy Slattery He give is all.

Butch Adams of white boots fame and Troy S certainly was a tackling machine and a friend of feline's

For Geoff Bagnall, check out 'BRL Interviews 9 - Geoff Bagnall' on that well known video website.

Butch Adams wasn't an import

Didn't say he was (think we got him from York, but not certain), I was refering to an earlier post when someone had floated the name of Adams

The block busting Kiwi prop
Mike Thompson

Ben Rauter had gone before the McNally era

Mustn't forget
Troy Slattery - must have been most peoples favourite player the 2 years he was here
Also, came the same year Damon Keating but my biggest memory of him is getting smashed in the face at Sheadingley.

Glen Stanton signed with Russell Klein captained Aus schoolboys

Suprised no one has mentioned Peter Benson and that infamous Challenge Cup again Bradford!

That was the year when Rowan Brennan also played. 1986/87 when we hadn't won a game until March when we thrashed Widnes.

Steve Halliwell joined us the year after. He'd scored 49 tries with Leigh in 1985/86 inside Phil Fox who'd got close to 30. I ran onto the pitch after a game for autographs and to get sock ties from the players and he gave me some selotape!
