Word on the street here in Newcastle (Aus) says Scott Dureau is considering his options. If I were a betting man, and I am, I might punt in another direction.

I certainly hope he stays with Catalans, but he hasn't been playing and the injuries and illness have taken their toll.

Might be that a change does his career good?

Dureau gone to the Roosters for the rest of the season.

A sad day. I understand that he hasn't been the same since that terrible illness, but I hoped he could turn it round with us. www.lindependant.fr/2014/06/25/d ... 899019.php

Key element of that article for me is... "L'objectif : que Dureau soit opérationnel pour sa dernière année de contrat (2015). "

i.e., he'll be back

I hope so, but if you were him would you want to trek back across the world for one more year if you got back settled at home?

Not sure.
