Karl Pryce (born July 27, 1986 in Bradford, England) is an English rugby union player who currently plays for Gloucester in the Guinness Premiership competition. His position of choice is on the wing. Pryce previously played rugby league with the Bradford Bulls until 2006.
Karl is also the younger brother of England and St Helens rugby league player Leon Pryce.
Karl is one of the outstanding Junior prospects in the British game. He has the size, skill, pace and power to trouble any opposition.
Although possessing all the above attributes Karl is sometimes considered by team mates and fans alike to be lazy and unwilling to work for the good of the team. Many critics believe this as being a major factor in making his decision to switch to rugby union.
He made his debut at St Helens in 2003 and was outstanding as the Bulls Senior Academy took the Championship in 2004. In 2005 he continued his progress and made 21 appearances scoring 17 tries making him third in the Bulls Try Scoring charts for the year.
Pryce was called up to the Great Britain Squad in 2006 for the 2006 Tri nations.
