The Bulls run with the same 19-squad for Friday night's trip to Hull FC that so convincingly put Castleford to the sword.

There are no fresh injury worries for Steve McNamara to contend with ahead of the visit to the KC Stadium.

Full back Michael Platt is still recovering from his injured hamstring while Joe Vagana, Glenn Morrison and Tame Tupou are medium to long-term casualties.

Terry Newton completes his two-match ban so he will be available for the club's second journey to the city when they face Hull KR next Sunday.

BULLS (from): Tadulala, Langley, Cook, Lynch, Jeffries, Halley, Hape, Solomona, Kopczak, James, Godwin, Harris, Burgess, Nero, Deacon, Finnigan, Evans, Sykes, Feather.

The Bulls' Reserve Grade hope to add their second win of the season against Hull on Saturday.

Basil Richards' side got off the mark at the third attempt with a one-sided 40-18 defeat of Castleford Tigers at Cleckheaton RUFC.

Prop Matt James - dropped down from Super League - responded by scoring twice.

Jason Crookes, Vinny Finnigan, Steve Crossley and Keale Carlile also crossed.

Skipper Richard Johnson kicked three goals and Steve Crossley added a further conversion.

They tackle the Black and Whites at Hull Ionians RUFC on Saturday (2.30pm).

The under-18s open their campaign against Leeds at Grattan Stadium on the same day (1.30pm).
