SHEFFIELD Eagles have signed former Bulls prop forward Matt James on a two-year full-time deal.

The 28-year-old Welsh international, who can also play in the second row and at loose forward, was with fellow Championship side Featherstone Rovers in the season just ended.

Previously James, who scored two tries in Rovers' 36-4 victory over the Broncos in the Shield final at Widnes, has also played for Halifax, London Broncos, Barrow Raiders and Wakefield Trinity Wildcats.
