Bradford Bulls have suffered a blow with the news that Australian Centre Adrian Purtell has torn his Pectoral Muscle and will miss the next six weeks of the season.

Purtell has played in both the Bulls Stobart Super League games this season but a visit to a Specialist in Manchester yesterday revealed the extent of the injury.

Meanwhile James Donaldson will see a Specialist on Monday to discover the extent of the knee injury he sustained against Castleford.
