| Why can't people just let them grow on there own,find their feet,and let their new fans enjoy being part of rugby league
But no,it'll be come on fast track them,hurtle them into the big time,5 big spanking and then get rid is the usual rl policy
good luck to them

| Quote Wire In The Final="Wire In The Final"Perhaps when Widnes went into Administration, they should have been dropped to one of the lower leagues. Would have been saved the moaning from their fans that they didn't get into Super League, despite neither contesting the Grand Final nor having a sound financial footing.'"
Give it a rest you gimp.
Oh and before you go spouting your verbal faeces, have a look at your facts and then go crawl back under your manhole cover.

| Great to see them starting out well both on and off the pitch. Long way to go in the season yet but I hope they do well.
Is it the way of RL Fans to constantly reopen old wounds (some so old they are now scars)? Leave it be folks, wish the best of luck to the Scorpions and enjoy the fact that there are two RL teams in Wales spreading the good word.

| Quote crucrucrusaders="crucrucrusaders"What winds me up most in all of this is that Leighton Samuel has now sold the club and most of the people responsible for making the mistakes regarding Visa's are no longer at the club and have moved on. The new owners got the fine that was dished out and the fans, who had no influence over the decision to bring lads over on dodgy Visa's, seem to be the ones that have it dragged up time and again. I don't care either way whether people bring it up but I think the problem lies with the RFL and the people at Crusaders at the time rather than anybody currently at the club (well maybe one) and there is nothing the new owners or the fans could have done to change that.'"
Make that ALL the people responsible are now no longer with the club (three people my reckoning).
But onwards and upwards. It's been a great start to the season so far and while we should milk this with the media non-stop while it lasts, we know that there are tougher opposition out there. Anthony Seibold is doing a great job and you can see the improvement all the time. I don't think a top seven play-off place is out of our reach as the lads are committing themselves in every game. Hunslet on Easter Monday at The Gnoll will be very interesting indeed and I advise everyone who can to get down there, should be a stern test.

| Quote Dico="Dico"Fair post Grendel and it could be a problem for the next year or two although if the Scorps were winning regularly and building a profile you'd hope there would be some better union converts or 16/17 year olds approached.
You're not telling me that the players playing there now are the best young guys in south wales. Hopefully with an increased Welsh interest there'd be more and more talented guys looking to pick it up'"
I'd have to say that I think the players in the Scorps ARE the best players available to us in S Wales at the moment. There are a few (Elliot Kear springs most readily to mind) who are better at The Crusaders,but are not reguarly available to us. There are plenty of players at C1 and conference level around, but I think at CC if we wanted to Welsh-out the team, we'd need to be looking to bring in "ex-pats" currently playing for English clubs, or just keep building on the lads we have and looking for talented converts.
The support network is there, just not quite at the higher levels yet.

|  I watched them play York and the Scorpions played very very well, the game against Hunslet will be a good test, as they did catch York on a bit of an off day, if they can mix it with York Hunslet and Blackpool who are by far the strongest teams in C1 then they will do very well. I see a big future for them.

| The players in the Championship are far fitter, faster, stronger and more skilful than Championship 1. And i'd say the gap is widening fast, as Keighley and Dewsbury are far superior sides to the Gateshead and Doncaster teams that went down last time around.'"
The standard will and must improve in C1, crowds in the Championship are looking very healthy on the whole but C1 Crowds have dropped alarmingly, which must be addressed. It's always difficult for promoted teams but you've always got to aspire to be the best you can or what's the point of bothering?

|  Yes another good crowd, The Scorpions got brough down to earth a little bit by Hunslet and have another very tricky fixture next week against Oldham. Still credit where credit due they are doing very very well so far this season and look to be building firm foundations for future success.
