NORTH Wales Crusaders' head coach Carl Forster has suffered plenty of pain when he's come up against Rob Massam in the past.

However, Forster is delighted to see the Wales international reach a major landmark.

Massam scored late on during last weekend's loss to Oldham to reach 200 tries in his rugby league career.

Almost 170 of these have come for the Crusaders and Forster said: "It's just massive. I'm made up for him.

"He has been a huge pain in the side playing against him over the years!

"He was the only one who walked off the field and could be happy with his performance.

"We know what we get with Rob.

"He is very good and it's a massive achievement."

Massam will be a key part of the side as Cru head to Championship side Keighley Cougars in the Challenge Cup tomorrow.
