It sounds more and more likely that he will be in a Cas shirt next year. I say give the lad a chance before we start slating him. He is certainly a big unit who scored a fair few tries last season at London. He's another body that will put competition into the centre role with him, Griffin and Thompson pushing for the spot opposite Joe.
Let's face it, he'll be on a lot less wage than Mathers which means if a player in SL or NRL comes free early in the season we'll have the money to go for. At the moment there aren't too many centres out that are avaliable so better to get Pryce in with a full pre-season under his belt than wait to see start of the season when it will take 2 months plus to knock him into shape.
