| Surely to god even a club as desperate as the celtic crusaders wouldnt sign a 35 year old rugby union player who has never played the game??
Yes, I know it's only superleague.....but thats almost as bad as Castleford signing Dwayne Chambers!!
Mind you I bet he could have kept the Leeds game in Newport down to below 50 |

Said on Boots and All last night he's expected to sign on Monday.
Great signing even if it's only as a PR stunt but even at 35 he'll bound to see some action. He's not exactly your average Union convert is he? A former Lions and Wales captain with the record number of welsh caps. Hasn't been named world player of the year as well? He must have a bit about him. But like I said it's great publicity as well.

The 2 codes arent that different despite what all the negative 'flatcappers' have you believe.
I speak as a RUGBY fan of both codes.
Alfie Thomas has been outstanding not only for Welsh Rugby (Cardiff Blues and Wales) but as a member of the Lions.
If he signs for the Crusaders tomorrow (as he is widely expected to do) it will bring nothing but positives, not only to the Crusaders, but to Rugby league in general |

how can a 35 year old kick and clapper bring positives to league ???????
hell get flattenned and retire within 2 months, having taken the crus for a bundle of cash and tried to take the out of the greatest game.
bit dodgy in the showers after the game too, or so its reported

Good to see homophobia is alive and kicking in RL. Get a life...
Good luck with this signing, I think you may have a winner there.

Hey Barrie Mac , I can't remember Dwayne Chambers captaining the British Lions in New Zealand , being the most capped player to play for his country ( 100 Caps ) and scoring 40 tries for his country
Tell me cobber, anyone in Australian rugby league come close to that playing record ?

Some english fans need to get a gripe with reality, that is bitter leigh, halifax and widnes fans crusaders are starting to work. Thomas signing is big, being a aussie it is like dally m switching all thoses years ago.

I hope it works out for all concerned. It'll be interesting to see how he goes, but after listening to the interview with him I would say that you're going to get 100% effort from him.
Good luck Gareth
