BRADFORD BULLS have revealed their squad numbers for the 2023 Championship season, but former Leeds Rhinos star Jack Walker has not been given the number one shirt.
Instead, Walker will wear the number 31 – the number in which he won the 2017 Super League Grand Final with Leeds.
Former Castleford Tigers and Featherstone Rovers halfback Tom Holmes, surprisingly, will wear the number one shirt despite playing all of his career so far in the halves or at hooker.
New signings Bodene Thompson, Ben Blackmore, and Joe Arundel have been given the 13, 2 and 3 shirts respectively ahead of what is being tipped to be a positive year for the Bulls.
