Does anyone know whats going on with the Crusaders jersies? a week until kick off and ive seen nothing, are they keeping the same ones?

I'm sure they was posted on here a while ago. Pink away shirt.

Crusaders new home shirt.

I really hope we get it in time.

Personally, I thinkt the Crusaders need to try and steer away from looking too much like the Welsh national shirt. Who's going to buy a national shirt if it's exactly the same as the Cru shirt, and vice versa?

Surely its better if the Crusaders shirts DO look like the Welsh national shirts?

Crusaders are a WELSH club (well they play in Wales anyway)


Patriotism and all that?

Agreed. If the ultimate goal is to have a second Welsh club in SL then it makes sense now to build Cru's own identity as the North Wales club, not THE Welsh club.

Super League isn't going to happen down South for quite a while yet I imagine.

For one the ground is not good enough, crowds not large enough so Scorpions will be a stepping stone to Crusaders and Super League for the forseeable future at least.

If they do get good enough and most importantly big enough whilst playing out of a better ground then the division would happen naturally with the clubs being at opposite ends of the country. Another scenario is that Crusaders are not around any more and Scorpions could fill that spot.

Yeah, I'm not saying the Scorpions are a shoe in for a license the next time the RFL dish them out. I think the ultimate goal is to get another Welsh club into SL, but that's a fair old while off yet. In the mean time establishing Cru with their own identity rather than the domestic counterpart to the international side. So, when there is a second team in SL the two clubs have their own unique identity to each other and the international squad, rather than the Welsh team and the other one. If that makes sense?

Does that mean that all English clubs have to play in English national shirts?

Does that mean that all English clubs have to play in English national shirts?

No.




Again, no.
