Bio:
A tenacious and skillful player, Trigger had a standout season with the Hermosa Beach Hound Dogs in ’06 before being lured back to Australia for the ’07 TNL Expansion Draft, where the Rudderz picked him up with their fifth selection (1/77).
His hockey career began in the back streets of Strathmore. A chance encounter with Grimmo at the Strathmore Primary School basketball court propelled Trigger into his hockey career, and he played his junior hockey with the Strathmore Snipers and picked up a handful of trophies and awards for his two way play. After that, a stint at the Raptors was closely followed by a lucrative contract with the Hermosa Beach Hound Dogs.
Away from hockey, Trigger spends his free time watching planes fly above his backyard, and is currently using the knowledge he gained from studying his degree in Advanced Aeronautical Space Surgery in an attempt to build the worlds first ambidextrous ruddering glove.
