Fijiian winger Semi Tadulala has become the latest capture for ambitious Championship club Keighley.

The 33-year-old former Bradford player returned to the engage Super League for a second spell with Wakefield last season following a stint in rugby union with Leeds but became a free agent after the Wildcats declined to renew his contract.

He will be reunited at Cougar Park with Keighley player-coach Jason Demetriou and other ex-Wakefield players Sam Obst and Michael Korkidas.

"I'm so thankful that Keighley are able to offer me a contract," Tadulala told the Bradford Telegraph & Argus.

"As much as I would like to continue playing in Super League, it's difficult to get fixed up this far into pre-season when clubs have their squads in place and are pretty much full up."

Tadulala is hoping to be a part of Fiji's 2013 World Cup squad.
