The Game Caller 🗣🎙📻

@GerrumOnSid3 He's just highlighting the fighting and scrapping mentality of the side from top to bottom, regardless of minutes played. Everyone is contributing to the building of the culture within the club.

@TheGameCaller I thought it was a subtle hint to something or meant 80 minutes

Kurt Haggerty says that the Bradford Bulls being back at Odsal in front of the club’s large fan base is everything him and the players talk about.  The Bulls boss says that his team aims to put on a show at home and achieve three wins from three at Odsal by competing and fighting for every moment they play against the Huddersfield Giants tomorrow evening. Kurt says whether you play 15 minutes or 18 minutes, his side will battle and fight for anything out on the field for the fans.  He also says that Castleford, Oldham and Wakefield have been first class to deal with after helping Bradford with their injury situation this week.

@GerrumOnSid3 Figure of speech.

@TheGameCaller 15minutes or 18 minutes?

👋 | Welcome, Jack Ormondroyd! Jack joins us on a season-long loan with no recall! 👥 | Jack is added to our @ASNDoors 21-Man Squad and is available for selection tomorrow evening. 📖 | bradfordbulls.co.uk/news/ormondroy… #RunWithTheBulls

I’m covering a few of these games; in fact, I’m doing four Rugby League commentaries from the Super League and Championship, this weekend across three different radio stations. I do hope the voice holds out and credit to @rugbyleaguecom for bringing five games to your ears.

The Bradford Bulls have announced the signing of utility star Chris Atkin on a permanent deal until the end of the season from Castleford Tigers.   The 33-year-old arrived at the Jungle midway through the 2025 season, having spent the best part of six years at Salford Red Devils, where he scored 17 tries in 110 appearances.   Atkin had previously enjoyed spells at Hull Kingston Rovers and Swinton Lions, and will bring real utility value and a rich “Rugby League IQ” to Kurt Haggerty’s side. Kurt Haggerty adding that he can play as a pivot, as a 13 and that he can cover at hooker as well.

@KeithHurell Wakefield will have the final decision on what happens. He is here for this weekend's game.

@TheGameCaller Why only a week? Stay longer

The Bradford Bulls have announced the signing of powerful dynamic forward Tray Lolesio on an initial one-week loan deal from Wakefield Trinity.   The 23-year-old joined Daryl Powell’s side in the off-season from Redcliffe Dolphins, where he spent two years in the Queensland Cup.   Lolesio made his debut for Wakefield in their 82-6 Betfred Challenge Cup Round Three victory over Swinton Lions and goes straight into Kurt Haggerty’s squad for the clash with Huddersfield Giants on Friday night. Kurt Haggerty says that he's had some great feedback on Tray and that the Bulls are really looking forward to having him with us this week. Kurt describes him as a dynamic front rower, who works hard off the ball and will really fit into what he's looking for with forward options limited due to injury and suspension.

@KeithHurell Jayden Nikorima is definitely playing.

@TheGameCaller If Jayden Doro & Blake all play that is a big boost I didnt expect

Kurt Haggerty has confirmed that Jayden Nikorima is fully fit and will confidently make his Bradford Bulls debut against the Huddersfield Giants on Friday evening. Eribe Doro (ankle) and Waqa Blake (shoulder) are both rated 50/50 to feature, with Doro seeing an ankle specialist this afternoon. Kurt confirms that he is still seeking reinforcements, and there is a possibility that something could happen before Friday. He admits he hasn't been able to name his 21-man squad yet but he is confident that he will be able to name a strong squad.

@TomG23_ Easter time.

@TheGameCaller How long until Will Gardiner returns?

The rebirth of Bullmania is in full swing as the Bradford Bulls confirm that UK Number One dance act Sigala will headline the club’s pre-match entertainment before their home game against the Huddersfield Giants on Friday evening. The club is already experiencing strong ticket sales, with another large turnout of 10,000 fans expected at Odsal Stadium for its third Super League match.

@TheGameCaller What was the admission costs?

The Wigan Warriors progress to the fifth round after a 30-6 victory against a Bradford Bulls side that never once took a backwards step, showing plenty of fight and spirit. There are of positives to take from a second half that ended 10-6, with the brutality of the standards that Bradford need to reach on show in a dominant first half showing from Wigan. Bradford finishing the game with just 15 fit players for the second consecutive game after Brandon Douglas (HIA) and Eribe Doro (Ankle) were forced to leave the field. Wigan and Bradford were rewarded with a 10,000 crowd after they agreed to reduce admission for this game.

@GeorgeGarforth That one should be a good game.

@TheGameCaller Thanks mate

Just finishing my Wigan Warriors vs Bradford Bulls commentary sheet off before catching the train. As many as 18 homegrown players (Wigan 11 and Bradford 7) could feature in this evening's Challenge Cup game. Clearly, both clubs are at different stages of their Rugby League development, but what they both share is a strong ethos around culture and nurturing homegrown players.
