Orford to make Bulls debut against Hull KR

BRADFORD BULLS scrum-half Matt Orford will make his eagerly-anticipated first appearance for the club in tomorrow's friendly at Hull KR.

Orford, whose arrival co-incided with that of the worst of an English winter, will partner fellow Australian Brett Kearney at half-back in a strong-looking Bulls side.

Prop Danny Sculthorpe and centre Michael Platt are the only senior players ruled out and both are set to miss the first month of the new Super League season.

Platt will have his leg brace removed early next week as he continues his recovery from a knee injury picked up in training, while new signing Sculthorpe is still struggling with a back problem.
