“We have a strong squad in place under James Coyle and Steve Deakin and although we don’t expect to use dual-registration extensively it gives us the opportunity should we wish to take it to increase our player pool at any particular time.”

Bulls chairman Andrew Chalmers added: “We are delighted to have entered into this partnership with Hunslet RLFC.

“Used correctly, it can be of great benefit to both parties and we are looking forward to a fruitful relationship with them.”
