Crusaders vs. Leeds Rhinos

[St Helens RLFC]

Opening round of the Super League tonight, last year's wooden spoonists take on the champions Leeds Rhinos live on Sky Sports.

Crusaders going to get completely annihilated,
Looking forward to it though, i've missed Superleague

 

[Olyy]

I knew Noble would have a positive influence, but not this much!
Crusaders are equalling/outplaying Leeds, 6 - 6 in halftime, with Leeds try being a piece of luck as the ball bounced in between the Crusaders fullbacks legs!

Yeah. To be honest, Crusaders are seeming more potent in attack, but equally Leeds have had a couple of close misses.
Looks to be a hard fought second half.

 

[Olyy]

Ah, Leeds have really stepped it up now,
6 - 24 with 6mins left

 

[Olyy]

FT:

Crusaders 6 - 34 Leeds

Think Crusaders shocked Leeds in the first half, who expected them to be a walkover, but Leeds came out fighting in the second half, and were just running in trys for fun towards the end.

Good match though, and promising (in the first half anyway) for Crusaders, who have had a messed up preseason (the move, staff change, and they missed a warmup game due to the weather), hopefully they'll do a bit better this season

A positive game for Welsh Rugby League. They got 10,334 there and apparently most of them were locals. Keeping in the game for 65 minutes against the Super league champions is a really good effort.
