Four Injured Players Ruled Out Long Term

Bradford Bulls can confirm that both Matt Diskin and Craig Kopczak will miss the next twelve weeks with shoulder and ankle injuries respectively.

They will both have operations on Friday. Elliott Kear will miss the eight weeks after breaking his wrist whilst Chev Walker has a broken rib and will be out for a similar period.

Bulls Coach Mick Potter said today:

"Kopczak's ankle got caught after he was rolled back over by a couple of players and he needs an ankle operation. Matt Diskin got flipped over and landed on his shoulder and he'll need an operation as well. It's unfortunate to lose two of our top-liners for at least three months. We were saying a week ago that we were starting to get players back and we lose five in one match so we're back to where we started.
