Eddie is a back who plays at fly-half.
Eddie was voted The Colin Cramption Supporters’ Player of the Season for our 2025-26 season. Here’s part of the citation used when Eddie was announced as the winner: “A calm, consistent presence at fly-half, Eddie Crossland settled quickly and became a trusted leader, playing every minute (bar 10-minutes for a technical yellow card) and removing any doubt around the 10 shirt. Composed under pressure with a strong kicking game and smart decision-making, he controlled matches with ease – earning high praise from supporters watching week-in-week-out and first-time watchers alike.”
On signing for Leeds Tykes, Eddie said: “Obviously, I’m excited – Tykes were the best team in the league last season, getting promoted. I want to get up to the standard of the players who were playing tonight (Eddie spoke after the first pre-season traning session). The standard is high, the fitness is up there – I want to build to that.
“I want to try to play every week. It’s a competitive squad, I want to fight for the 10/12 spot – wherever Pete wants to pick me.”
