The Bulls have announced that six players from their Under-16s Scholarship season have been handed contracts with the club.
They include centre Jacob Farrell, loose forward Isaac Pollard, prop or second-rower Sam Bates, stand-off Josh Greenwood-McDonald, half-back Nick Gomersall and winger Todd Binns.
The Bulls’ Head of Youth Paul Medley said: “I’d like to thank the players for their patience in what has been a difficult situation.
“Until the future of the club was ratified by the RFL we were not in a position to offer contracts but they all held back until we were able to do so.
“All six have shown throughout the season that they have what it takes to warrant a contract with the Bulls and they will all be given every opportunity to make a successful career in rugby league.”

Well, well, well, our so called Insiders have once again been proved wrong. About time they gave up, trying to be clever, leaving it to those WHO ARE IN THE KNOW.
