Wales-based Super League side Crusaders on Sunday signed Australian duo Nick Youngquest and Frank Winterstein.

Full-back Youngquest has played for Cronulla, St George Illawarra, Penrith and Canterbury in the NRL, but has spent the last two years in Europe, initially with French side Pia and from last May with Gateshead.

Winterstein, a former Bulldogs forward, joined Wakefield for the 2009 season but his appearances were restricted after suffering a broken jaw.
