Bradford woes continue with double injury blow

James Gordon

Bradford are waiting on news of injuries to skipper Matt Diskin and prop Adam Sidlow, suffered in Sunday’s 16-0 defeat to Hull KR.

Diskin was helped off the field after just nine minutes, while the departure of Sidlow shortly after left the Bulls with just 15 players to use for the remainder of the match.

It proved too much of a disadvantage, as Rovers picked up their first victory of the season, thanks to tries from Omari Caro, Kris Keating and Kevin Larroyer.

The Bulls were already without winger Jamie Foster, forwards Dale Ferguson and Chev Walker and utility back Lee Gaskell.

They remain on negative points at the bottom of the Super League table, with two wins from six games this season.
