Eorl is the Giants longest serving player having been at the club since 2000 and recently commenced his Testimonial year at the club. During his decade of representing the claret and gold he has developed into one of the top metre making prop forwards around as well as being one of the most distinctive due to his trademark long blonde hair.
2009 was a great year for the fans favourite, as he managed to establish himself on the International stage for the first time, appearing for England in the Gillette Four Nations against Australia (twice) and New Zealand. The barnstorming 198cm star also provided 58 offloads last season, putting him second in the Super League rankings. Possessing plenty of pace for a big man, Crabtree always makes a big impact and lifts the crowd whether starting the game or coming off the bench.
