Released by Toulon.

Would be a good capture for Crusaders if they could tempt him over. Would certainly increase the interest in Wrexham you would think..

Every tanning salon in North Wales would be celebrating if that were to happen. He's never looked much cop to me but might be worth a shout for them even if it just drags in some revenue.

Him coupled with Thomas (if you excuse the expression) would raise their profile
Trouble is, he's got more baggage than Terminal 5 @ Heathrow

Woman in a man's body.

He's too religious, always in & out of Church.

he would get SMASHED

I disagree, not a massive union fan, but this lad can hit hard, run hard and has decent hands. I think he could do a decent job. Lifestyle seems to be a bit of an issue from what you read in the press though.

He looks like he's been dipped in tea.

The result of drunken shenanigans between David Dickinson and Sue Barker

I bet you Gavin Henson would not bring in more than he costs.

He's just a media circus. Gareth Thomas was a good signing because he was a good reliable pro who you just knew would fit in and do the business...Henson is one of those like Willie Mason, you can sign him if you want headlines but you know the story will end badly.

IMO he is a long way behind Allan Bateman.

Different game, look at how Thomas's first 2 tackles went. He would get hammered.

Mason is the poor man's Henson. At least Henson can kick and has some pace. I wonder what the odds are of Henson and Mason playing together next season in SL for Crusaders are.
They are both indisciplined and disruptive. Henson has been trouble whereever he goes, whilst his replacement at Toulon is much worse.

He and Thomas cannot be compared. Henson is a machine in defence, he can really smash people.

Don't forget his attack. I've been reliably informed he can literally dance around defences.

RL is such a minority sport that imo the only bad press that could ever exist for RL is news pertaining to drug cheats, or to the RFL/Clubs making an ass of the rules of our own game ie Mason saga. That whole situation was handled so poorly by all concerned from start to finish and we again appear an amateurish laughing stock from the outside-in. It simply would not have been allowed to happen in other pro sports.
There are probably other areas like low crowds which tarnish our game, but I cannot see how signing someone like Gavin Henson (with all his baggage) wouldn't increase interest, especially for the Crusaders.
