JOHN Kear has named an unchanged 19-man squad for Bulls' home game against Oldham on Friday, suggesting that he has forgiven his players for their "sloppy" and "disrespectful" display against Hunslet last Sunday
Despite their 32-12 victory, Kear was openly critical of his side's performance and attitude but he will be hoping that the same set of players can make amends on their return to action.
Captain Lee Smith and versatile young back Brandon Pickersgill were the two who missed out on matchday and they will be hoping to regain their place back in the starting line-up.
Kear's squad announcement means another chance to impress for new signing Jake Butler-Fleming, while his fellow Australian Dane Chisholm will be looking to gain some momentum after his long injury layoff.
The 19-man squad in full:
Callum Bustin
Jake Butler-Fleming
Dane Chisholm
George Flanagan
Matthew Garside
Ashley Gibson
Dalton Grant
Sam Hallas
Liam Johnson
Joe Keyes
Gregg McNally
George Milton
Elliot Minchella
