Trevor Skerrett was one of few outstanding GB Representatives on the 1979 Lions Tour and he had had a good game in the 1979 Challenge Cup Final for Wakefield.
Hull obtained his services during the summer of 1980 for a world record £40,000 and he became another part of Hull’s outstanding 1980’s team.
Some of his early games were in the second-row, but it was at blind-side prop where he really made his mark. He was a big man and well equipped to dominate the contested scrummaging existing during those years.
Trevor won Championship honours with Hull in 1983 as well as the Challenge Cup in 1982, the Yorkshire Cup in 1982 & 1983, and the John Player Trophy in 1982.
