He can play in the centres too. He did well at Odsal recently (a hat trick) and would be home grown too.

whether it would be a good signing depends entirely on which karl pryce turns up. The one who who wants to play would be a decent acquisition. The lazy lump who limps off after a soft tackle wouldnt.

Can't say the return of KP would have me jumping joy. Worth it perhaps if it convinces his better brother to sign too thouugh.

The one who wants to play would make a World XIII - the other one is a waste of space.

Exactly my thoughts. got to wonder if its part of a deal involving leon too. this next contract period would be there last chance to play on same team and cant see catalans picking karl up.

It'd be nice to see some real size and pace in the three quarters. Lulia and Pryce would be an imposing force for any team to deal with. Just look at the number of tries Karl scored playing outside Hape, if we do get him outside Lulia, hopefully we could see something similar.

I wouldn't be despondent at seeing Karl back at the Bulls, though I wouldn't like to think we were depending on him. Major thoughts would be about defence, though the current threequarters haven't totally covered themselves in glory there either, along with my impression that the only team Karl seems to really shine against is us. He certainly knew the way to the line when he was here before though, so I guess he can still do a job, but well behind such as Royston in the pecking order imo.

Leon has signed for Catalan - that is fact.

So we spent the whole of the last off season kite flying about signing a player who was contracted elsewhere and now he is off contract we're not signing him?
