Aye, shut Crusaders, Quins, Skolars, Hemel, Sheffield and whoever else down. Why even try spread our game? Let's go back to winter, unlimited tackles, Yorkshire & Lancashire leagues and working down the pit in the morning and playing in the afternoon.

If it turns out that Crusaders doesn"t work, so be it. Better to have had a go than never bothered.

dont see how this gets cas off the hook unless martin drops it, hes surely still has a breach of contract case if the rumours are true, just because hes now found alternative employment does not mean cas didnt terminate an alleged agreed contract!

He still will have a "Breach of Contract" case but the amount of compensation will be reduced as Martin has a Contract with Crusaders. He will not have been paid the full Contract value and then signed for Crusaders.

I suspect Martin will have settled with Castleford before he signed for Crusaders.

should save us a few bob in comp then , just out of interest are celtic allowed more overseas players than other clubs or the same, because there seem to be alot of aussie players linked with a move there.

Worry not, Celtic wont be with us beyond 2012.

Lets just hope all these Australians & New Zealanders all have the correct papaerwork
