Crusaders suffer record 134-0 defeat

North Wales Crusaders suffered the biggest defeat of any side in the top two divisions in the 131-year history of rugby league.

They were beaten 134-0 at home by London Broncos, conceding 25 tries at Stadiwm CSM in Colwyn Bay.

It is the third time this season Crusaders have conceded 100 points in the Championship, including a 106-18 defeat by Broncos in London.

Sunday's defeat was only 10 points short of rugby league's all-time heaviest defeat, when York Knights beat North Wales Raiders 144-0 in League One in 2018.

Broncos' Emarly Bitungane opened the scoring in the first minute, with centre Brandon Webster-Mansfield leading the try-haul with five.

The London side top the Championship table with 14 wins from 14.

Crusaders - who have lost 11 of their 14 games - are bottom on -6 points, having been handed a 12-point deduction following insolvency and a change of ownership at the start of the season.
