Bulls’ coach Lowes has no fitness worries ahead of Trinity showdown
Kingstone Press Championship player of the year Lee Gaskell – who suffered kidney damage during Bulls’ defeat at Belle Vue in August – is set to start after making a successful comeback off the bench in last Saturday’s home defeat by Halifax.
Nine players – Adam O’Brien, Adam Sidlow, Adrian Purtell, Dale Ferguson, Dane Nielsen, Danny Williams, Danny Addy, Jake Mullaney and Tom Olbison – could return today after being rested last week.
