SALFORD RED DEVILS’ Joe Bullock has completed a short-term move to Barrow Raiders.
He has traded places with fellow prop Jamie Pye, who has been recalled from a season-long loan by Salford as the crisis club manage their squad while subject to a reduced salary cap.
Bullock previously enjoyed great success at the Raiders, making over 100 appearances for the club between 2014-18 before earning a move to Wigan Warriors.
The 32-year-old goes straight into contention to feature in the Raiders’ upcoming Championship trip to Widnes Vikings.
Barrow Raiders director of rugby Andy Gaffney said: “It’s no secret that we are short on numbers in the forward pack, given the injuries we are having to contend with and Jamie Pye’s return to his parent club earlier this week.
“To bring in a player of Joe’s immense experience and quality will be of real benefit for us as a group as preparations continue for Sunday’s game against Widnes.
“I’d like to thank Paul Rowley and everyone at Salford for helping to get this move over the line.”
