RICHIE Mathers and Jean-Philippe Baile have been dropped from the Bulls squad altogether following the Easter Monday defeat at Halifax.
Mathers could be replaced at full back by James Clare, Oscar Thomas or Johnny Campbell, while Joe Lumb is expected to earn a place on the bench as replacement hooker in place of Baile.
Captain Adrian Purtell and Kris Welham are fit to return after injury and should both be in the starting line-up to give the Bulls a much-needed boost.
Bulls' 19-man squad: Adrian Purtell, James Clare, Steve Crossley, Dan Fleming, Jonny Campbell, Adam O’Brien, Jay Pitts, Lee Gaskell, Kris Welham, Paul Clough, Mitch Clark, Alex Mellor, Joe Lumb, Danny Addy, Tom Olbison, Omari Caro, Kurt Haggerty, Dale Ferguson, Oscar Thomas.
