if it took anyone more than 2 seconds to work that out they need their head checking

According to the YP this morning all Crusaders players are free agents !

I'm not defending Crusaders by any stretch mate but you're posting on the forum of a club that has been in administration several times in their short history (short compared to many "heartland" clubs) and struggle to get more than a thousand people through the gate and have been that way for most of their existence. There are many RL fans who still see South Yorkshire as an expansion area. People in glass houses etc.

To be far, that's why throwing us straight into SL would also be a daft idea

My reply wasn't intended as a dig at Donny mate. I just can't do with doom mongers who think only Northerners born within the sound of the M62 can appreciate rugby league.

Another fallout of this is overseas quotas for super league players being removed so the 13 overseas Crusaders players can find other clubs.

You may well have a point, I may well have a point and thats the point of a forum.

As much as I'd like to, I can't argue with that.
