Best non English players : Wed Jan 17, 2024 12:10 pm  

We get so many overseas players that it got me wondering who is the best player we have ever had from each country. I'll start the ball rolling;

Wales Berwyn Jones
Scotland Rob Valentine
Ireland Scott Grix
France Oliver Elima
Greece Steve Georgalis
S Africa Gert Coetzer
New Zealand Henry Paul
Australia Ray Price
Samoa Dave Solomona
Tonga David Fafita
Cook Islands Tinirau Arona

I may have missed some countries off but these players have all given great excitement and pleasure watching the Trin.

I accept that Grix/Brough/Finn and Mason qualified to play for other national team, but they are most definitely English

Presumably he’s the best from Malta because he’s the only one from there!!!

I'd be pushed to say he was even the best from Malta even if he is the only one,1315, especially if based on his Trinity record.
