Bulls coach Francis Cummins has named an unchanged 19-man squad for Sunday's derby at Super League leaders Huddersfield.

Joint captain Matt Diskin sustained a dead leg during last weekend’s home defeat at the hands of St Helens.

But he has been included in the squad, encouraging hopes that he will be passed fit to face the Giants.

Bulls squad: James Donaldson, Adam Sidlow, Adam O'Brien, Manase Manuokafoa, Jamie Langley, Matt Diskin, Brett Kearney, Nick Scruton, Heath L’Estrange, Matty Blythe, Keith Lulia, Elliot Whitehead, Elliot Kear, Jarrod Sammut, Danny Addy, Tom Olbison, Chev Walker, Jobe Murphy, Jamie Foster

Same 17 as last week. But start Nas not Sidwell.

But move Foster to FB, Kearney to HB, and Whitehead & Blythe each move out one with Chev in right 2nd row & Langley starting at LF.

Get size & defensive solidity on from the start and get us into the game. COYB!!!!

Agree we need aggressive defence from the start, and that Whitehead and Blythe should move out one each to allow Foster to go full back and Kearney to the halves.
Langley is playing prop now so I'd start him there with Nas, Chev to second row and Donaldson at loose, his defence last week was awesome.
Addy drops to bench for me.

Yes, agree with you both, if you don't have a good defence and half back pairing it's gonna be an uphill struggle
with most teams, but against Huddersfield, at moment it will be a disaster.
