It may be a rugby league team, but they have a great motto. Not only is it good Latin, but it has classical roots. The Crusaders Welsh RLC's motto comes from Lucius Accius a Roman tragic Poet. ‘Oderint dum metuant’ - ‘Let them hate, so long as they fear’ later became a famous motto of the Emperor Caligula.
This has to be one of my favorites.
