YOUNGSTER Callum Bustin has earned a place in Bulls' first 19-man squad of the League One season.

Bustin only made his first appearance in a Bulls shirt in last Sunday's pre-season friendly with Cougars but he impressed sufficiently to force his way into John Kear's plans for the trip to York City Knights.

As expected, Sunday's opener comes too soon for Dane Chisholm following his long-term knee injury.

Bulls 19-man squad: Bustin, Crossley, Garside, Gibson, Grant, Halafihi, Hallas, Hodgson, Johnson, Keyes, Kirk, McNally, Milton, Minchella, Peltier, Pickersgill, Ryan, Smith, Wood.
