it makes sense to use the excellent facilities at the Racecourse as often as possible, and Super League rugby means hosting high-profile clubs with substantial travelling followings

Seriously though a nice piece for RL and positive noises about the expansion of the game. I didn't think the Bridgend link was that unsuccessful, isn't it the reason why the CC are in Super League in the first place? Can someone explain?

I really enjoyed reading this article!

"By qualifying for an elimination match at Huddersfield, the Crusaders have given British rugby league its most successful expansion story for more than a decade." Wow.

I just wish that Noble stays.

Here's to turning the North into a heartland of the game - the north of Wales that is.

Anybody know what the odds were at the beginning of the season for Cru making the playoffs?
