What an absolute legend. Ray Price, Terry Randall, Dallas Donnelly Craig Young, Gavin Miller..... just the toughest players and a pleasure to watch back then. Throw in Frank Hyde's commentary, and that was my youth on weekends.

[@johncavar2914]

🎉excellent 👌 post 🎉

[@user-wp4or6vn2o]

Jake is the most underrated yet one of the best interviewers on Fox. Well done as usual Jake.

[@pwhitaker569]

Ray saying it like it is lol. No fucks given! He came over to the UK to play for Trinity and he's still loved over here now by the fans all this time later.

[@graemewilson1400]

I followed rugby for many years and watched Ray whom I thought was one of the greatest breakaways I'd ever seen his ability to follow the ball was uncanny. I was very sad when we lost him to league but followed him anyway. Wow just amazing it was like the game was just waiting for him. I'm now almost 70 and hardly watch union....not the same game but league has just progressed so much. Proud Manly supporter but still love this wonderful guy.

[@Jay-gj3gg]

I watched Ray Price as a kid. My idle. I played #8 Lock. I learnt how to tackle by recording Rays games on VHS and replaying over and over. Thankyou Ray. You will always be the greatest Lock forward that has ever played the game. A true blue Aussie hero. Good bless

[@Willdrknght]

At the age of 50 he was the fittest man I ever met . Big kid and absolute menace playing around and NEVER wanted to lose anything . Thanks for the laughs Ray ✌🏻

[@johnfrawley5706]

65 yr old american i learned of this great sport 10 yrs ago i watch every bit of old vidio i can find this man to me was one of the tuffest players i saw him take hits and give em just look at his face the players now? u dont see the tuffness

[@ronanrogers4127]

Good interview Jake, well done…important to capture legends like Ray Price while we can. One of my all time favourite players. I worked with his daughter about 20 years ago…passed on my admiration for the great Ray Price

[@RugbyLeagueHistory]

One of Parramatta's greatest ever players and one of the ultimate competitors.

[@johnmoretti122]

Price was an absolute THUG !! Finished Mark Schulman's career and then Rod Reddy destroyed him in the next game, total twat

[@mreel3488]

He's 100% right about today's players, only care about the money and nothing else. No loyalty to teams just go to the highest bidder. As an Eels fans, Pricey is a true legend.

[@Danthman75]

The 80s Parra side have been dudded as far as Immortals go. How isn't Price an Immortal?

[@johnmoretti122]

because he's a THUG

[@sebastianbivona5808]

Absolutely - Price , Sterling,Kenny ,the Guru & the Crow should have been admitted years ago

[@trevorpowell6951]

The immortal roster has been very political since day one. There are 4 Eels players that should be indoctrinated into the honour but I have ridiculed the selection process since it first started.

[@paulheywood2116]

They don’t make blokes like ray anymore bloody legend

[@chevchevmoimoi]

Living legend

[@annettegeorge209]

They were the good old days

[@geoffkowald2610]

Best player to lace on a boot in my opinion

[@gravy2973]

100%

[@ray.shoesmith]

Easily the toughest tbh. The man was a gladiator.

[@ray.shoesmith]

08:46 The truest thing ever spoken. Lewis wasn't fit to carry Berts kitbag.

[@tuufn8039]

What a competitive mindset. Teach this to these younger players today.

[@wolfgangvonuce9803]

I laughed so hard at this interview😂Ray Price is hilarious!😂😂what an absolute legend👍

[@patcummins6036]

He was spot on about the referees! Only now we’ve got ‘em in the bunker as well fucking things up!

[@damionnefelsch6546]

An absolute gentleman and an Aussie who calls a spade a spade. How I know? Local gold coast bus service I used to catch sometimes and Ray was the driver. He couldn't get away from me. Sometimes he'd do the northern service and I'd be lucky enough to catch his bus to my job. I asked him once why he's still driving a bus. He said because we used to have to have a job. Thinking about it, the women's game today sounds like the financial problems the men suffered even before Ray's time in the game

[@wolfgangvonuce9803]

1984 GF Loss: "in my eyes we didn't lose it,the jerk in the middle took it off us" 😂

[@rabbits77]

Had a fee shirbys with pricey and his wife not long ago at at a friend's 50th ,very nice people indeed .

[@CD-oq8em]

tell it the way it is Ray. True blue

[@ray.shoesmith]

That 86 Premiership side. Ella, Cronin, Grothe, Kenny, Sterling, Price.

[@frankn6519]

Fucking awesome interview, good onya Ray, legend. Go the valley boys!

[@wayneburns8071]

Ray price should be a mortal now he is the best lock forward I have ever seen I think a lot of people would agree with me on that

[@jasonoxenbridge4554]

criminal that he's not

[@keithdevine8281]

Rod Reddy sorted him out in the nineteen seventy seven replay grand final.

[@jesstill7833]

Ray Price a Champion player ,Watched him for years as a Dogs fan for life ,Pricey was a great player 👍👍🙏🦘🇦🇺🧌

[@darkstars-torpedoes-of-truth]

As a Manly fan, I hated Ray Price back then. But now, those days are long gone and I admire the old ba@#ard.

[@user-wt2xl3gh6y]

Saw him play at Cumberland under John peard who was a footballer footballer

[@kinchegayowie6167]

and a bloody funny man JP

[@jamespeet3060]

Always gave 100%

[@connorduke4619]

And that was on a quiet day.

[@tomstatham4075]

Mr Perpetual Motion!

[@404ErrorPage]

The current squad should be forced to watch this interview over and over again so it sinks in what it means to play for the Eels jumper, especially our forwards. He's 100% right about leaving nothing on the field or anything in the gas tank for next week. If they had the 1% that Jack Gibson taught those players back then in the 2022 GF they would have beaten the Panthers but alas that's the difference between a good coach and a great coach. BA's excuse when interviewed was that they played their GF the week before against the Cowboys - a defeatist mind set. BA is a good coach but a great coach would of got them up for the GF.

[@kinchegayowie6167]

Character plus

[@tonymmm6543]

The best forward of all time

[@brendanryan8439]

Forgot he was a union player first

[@bradscifleet843]

Love the old praying mantis lol

[@freedomofchoicelover3734]

Price sterlo Kenny grothe, best if all time in their positions, lewis the only one coming close to Kenny, all four should be immortals, how dies a team who wins 4 premierships in a tough era get no resoect

[@connorduke4619]

They were certainly all right up there. As was my favourite player of the era, Steve Rogers.

[@johnanthonycafe2993]

Respect for Ray Price but not Steve Mortimer. Every clip I’ve seen of him he comes in with a punch - Peter Moore’s lap dog - now he’s got concussion related issues.
