Bradford extend loan of Hull KR half-back Joe Keyes

Bradford have extended the loan deal of half-back Joe Keyes from Hull KR.

The 25-year-old started his career at London Broncos before enjoying four seasons with Bradford prior to his move to Hull KR.

Keyes scored 24 tries in 60 appearances for the Bulls during his first stint with the club, and recently re-joined the Championship club on a short-term loan from Super League side Hull KR.

The Ireland international made his second debut for Bradford in Sunday’s 30-16 win over Batley, kicking five goals as he helped the Bulls move into third place in the Championship table. It was his first appearance for Bradford since September 2019.

Bradford have announced that his loan spell has been extended on a week-by-week basis.

Keyes has won eight caps for Ireland since making his international debut in 2015 and will be hoping to represent the Wolfhounds at the World Cup this autumn.
