the bosc rumour has come from a conversation between me and gledhill which went along line off 'who sould we sign if we cant get pryce' to which I replied 'bosc'. Mick then posted this on forums as We've signed Bosc. Afaik there was never any substance in this apart from Mick repeating it on here.

yes,he's definitely staying in france - he had a bad ankle ligament problem which kept him out and tried to come back and play with injections instead of having the operation - hopefully he will be available for 2011 cos' we have really missed his quality at no7
Good luck to Mick Potter with your lot - he's still respected down here and hopefully will turn things around for the Bulls
btw - met up with the great Iestyn Harris yesterday at Albi following the Wales victory - he was mega-chuffed to say the least ! he seems to have the makings of a decent coach imo
Harris,now he WAS a great player.........................

Nearly bit there young man but Sir James was a better UK player than fatty Keiron.

It's very difficult to judge, & not necessary anyway. They were different types of hooker, KC relied largely on sheer power, combined with great speed in his younger days. Lowes had more guile.

And far more sledging and niggling skill too...

I would choose Lowes (but then I would) but it is safe to say that each was perfectly suited to his club at that moment in time.

Can't we simply agree that they were BOTH great players in their own right ? (from a Saints fan btw)

I agree that within this thread about Leon Pryce we should all agree about the quality of two entirely seperate players both of which have retired.

BACK TO LEON THEN! I am assuming within good reason due to good reports and rumours that leon will be a Bull within the next 2 weeks!

sorry to be naive ,but why would Leon leave the Saints in the first place ? thought he was a first-choice player ? has his contract expired ? has he had personal grievances with the board etc ?

Lives In Bradford, this is his hometown club and feels like this could be a good chance to end his career at Bradford. Plus Saints have upcoming halves which could easily take his place. HE IS GONNA BE A BULL (again)

thanks JBT for the info - good signing for your lot methinks - what's happening with his brother ? we saw him play for Wigan v the Dragons in Perpignan in august,is he on the move also ? First time we had seen him in the 'flesh' - played well that day and seemed a nice guy when we met him after the game.

This thread has gone awfully quiet. I wonder why that is? Im sure those of you in the know, will know why.

Unlucky

Look in the rumours thread....

Yes you may have given Leon a shirt for 2011, but what's to say that he'll be playing in it?

From todays T&A

The Bulls remain keen on signing St Helens stand-off Leon Pryce, although much depends on the Bradford-born star’s recovery from a neck injury - and his club’s willingness to sell.

So nothing new at all then.

next season or mid season at best mick. Saints won't let leon go for a sensible fee until eastmonds fully fit again.

Agree so Leon wasn't lying when he said he would be a Bull in 2011, just not a Bull at the start of 2011.

Sounds like I won't be getting my Harris out in cue gardens after all.

TBH it was never in doubt.

You can now all rest easy.

I saw him in Cash Converters yesterday (it's a long preseason) and he told me he'll be playing in a shirt that is prodominately white next season.

That's all I'll say on the matter.

Give it up man.

I was so tempted to get Pryce on the back of my new shirt yesterday

He is coming
