its also on the wiki page aswell could it really happen?

No smoke without Fire.

Andy Powell will be at the racecourse ground tonight to watch the game according to Gareth Thomas Tweet on Twitter.

Dont know anything much about union, whats the guy like? what position would he play? (assuming noble isnt trying to sign yet another fullback).

He's a backrower, but I presume he would play prop in League. He's a good ball runner, hits the line at pace and is a big lad. The one thing that probably makes it improbable is wages - probably on a fair bit in union as he's a British Lion, would imagine he'd need to take a cut to go to the Crusaders.

I believe he is on £140,000.

and he has a year left on his blues contract.... maybe get him after next years WC.?

Cardiff Blues may look to offload him if a deal can be done and the player agrees to move to the Crusaders.

hes on mega bucks but out of favour due to his golf-buggy ride on the M4

Not sure isn't the wc next autumn if he comes over it will have to be the start of next season or the season after. If and it's a big if he goes to the wc the across he'll have no club from may/June for next year until feb. A) would the WRU allow a disgraced player back in a welsh top for the WC. And b) a guy who is defecting? If he plays the wc he won't come over for years if at all

as reported in the sun andy powell met crusaders officals yesterday to discuss about the possible move to the crusaders,he was also at the catalans game could this deal really happen?
