Shontayne is a hugely talented centre who is widely regarded as one of the most gifted players currently plying their trade in Super League. Since joining the Bulls in 2003, the Kiwi international has established himself as a key player for Bradford and he was sorely missed during the majority of the 2007 season, having suffered a cruciate ligament injury.
Hape's partnership with the now departed Lesley Vainikolo was a key part of the Bulls success in recent years and he will be looking to strike up an equally effective bond with Tame Tupou during 2008.
