Bulls coach Francis Cummins has included Academy duo Alex Mellor and Sam Wood in his 19-man squad to face London Broncos on Sunday.

Under-19s captain Wood and second-rower Mellor have both played in Super League this season and could now get their chance to shine again.

Their opening has arisen after Matty Blythe and Adrian Purtell were ruled out with knee injuries, joining Heath L'Estrange, John Bateman, Oliver Roberts and Adam Sidlow on the sidelines.

Bulls squad: Addy, Diskin, Donaldson, Evans, Foster, Gale, Kear, Kearney, Langley, Lulia, Manuokafoa, Mellor, O’Brien, Olbison, Platt, Sammut, Scruton, Walker, Wood.
