Bradford have signed former Wakefield scrum-half Harry Siejka on a two-year deal.

Siejka, 22, joined the Wildcats from St George-Illawarra Dragons at the start of 2014, and made six appearances, before a three-game spell at Championship club Featherstone.

Bulls coach James Lowes said: “I like what I have seen of Harry,” said Lowes, who took over the Bulls coaching reins earlier this year.

“He came over on the back of a pretty bad injury and has not yet managed to fulfil his potential, but he is an excellent scrum-half and we are delighted to have him on board.

“I liken him to Bobby Goulding. He can break the line, has a great kicking game and is the kind of guy who is not afraid of getting stuck in.

“I feel sure Harry has some great years ahead of him and am hoping he will form a solid partnership with Lee Gaskell in the halves.

“They should compliment each other pretty well. Both differ a fair bit in style but we have together a cracking mix here, with young Adam Brook right behind the pair of them.”

 

A former Australian schoolboy, Siejka made his NRL debut for Penrith in 2011 and has also played for New Zealand Warriors.
