14 Points
The Rhinos travelled to Wales for the season opener against the Crusaders and found a snow covered pitch and full house.
Despite trailing early on, and being all square at half-time, twenty-eight points in the last sixteen minutes saw us secure the points and start the year where we left the last.
The photographers from rlphotos.com were at the Racecourse Ground and sent us these photos.

We weren't worried after 60 min were we?!
Crusaders look like they may be able win a few games this year if that's what they can do with no pre season games. Can't say what it would have been like pn a green pitch but probably fair to assume that it levelled things somewhat. I watched the game on Sky and could someone tell them if they ever televise a game with a white background again, it would help if the players weren't throwing a white thing around to play with!
Thought Brett Delaney looked impressive again as did Buderus. Eastwood looks a bit out of shape or perhaps that's just the way he is? Wouldn't want to cross him though!
Never seen Ali so happy on a rugby pitch but then it's understandable after that second try - just as well it wasn't important. Has the video ref got a camera that we don't know about? Just noticed Ali is our top try scorer on the night but doesn't register one vote on the man of match poll
