Bradford coach Steve McNamara has recalled Chris Feather for Sunday's Super League clash with Catalans Dragons.

The prop has not played for seven weeks since suffering heavy concussion and temporary paralysis against Toulouse.

Craig Kopczak also returns for the Bulls after being cup-tied for last weekend's shock defeat to Hull.

However, captain Paul Deacon, vice-captain Glenn Morrison, Wayne Godwin, Chris Nero and Semi Tadulala are still absent.

Meanwhile, Les Catalans are boosted by the return of hooker Aaron Gorrell, who missed their 48-0 thrashing of Huddersfield.

The French side, currently placed third in the table, have only David Ferriol and Cyril Gossard remaining on the sidelines.

Speaking to Bradford's website, McNamara said: "We played Catalans here a few weeks back and played very well and ran in lots of points but that game will have no bearing on this one and I am sure they will be coming here feeling they can win.

"They have some very good, experienced Australians in their side and also some good Frenchmen with a lot of flair.

"I expected them to do well this year and I am not surprised at all with their league position."

Bradford Bulls squad: Cook, Langley, Halley, Vagana, Sykes, Feather, Harris, Lynch, Evans, Kopczak, Solomona, James, Burgess, Platt, Jeffries, Tupou, Finnigan, Newton, Hape.

Catalans Dragons squad: Greenshields, Murphy, Wilson, Mogg, Pelo, Bosc, McGuire, Gorrell, Guisset, Raguin, Croker, Mounis, Carlaw, Elima, Duport, Chan, Fakir, Casty, Touxagas.
