It's got people talking which is good! Will be interesting to see.

He's heard about the tactics Leon Pryce uses and he cant wait to play against him

Welsh club sign a very prominent 35 year old former Welsh RU international. Publicity stunt in an attempt to get more bums on seats and, maybe more importantly, make the Crusaders a more attractive proposition to younger top level Welsh kick and chasers.

It's a publicity stunt but a good one.

If it raises the game in Wales it's worthwhile.

Unfortunately I tend to agree.
I've no doubt that at 25 he'd do well but 35?
Next it could be 'bring back Allan Bateman'? (a superb player but now in his 40's)

again crusaders fans think he will do brilliantly others not so. i think he might struggle as the pace of the game is alot quicker but it a good move to promote rugby league

It's a win-win for the game of RL.

If he fails, he's a RU legend who can't hack it in RL.
If he succeeds - and I hope he does - he'll be a massive draw for the Crusaders and a real Welsh icon for the fans to latch onto.

Anything that gets people talking about RL is a great thing.

There is no reason why Alfie Thomas should fail.

The 2 games aren't as different as all the 'flatcappers' would have you believe.

A great signing for the club IMO
