Winger suffered broken scaphoid during defeat to Warrington
Bradford have been dealt a further injury blow with the news that winger Elliot Kear will be out for at least two months with a wrist injury.
The Wales international suffered a broken scaphoid during the Bulls' 23-10 Stobart Super League defeat at the hands of Warrington on Saturday.
Kear now joins a lengthy casualty list at Odsal - Bradford announced on Monday that prop forward Craig Kopczak, will be sidelined for between six and eight weeks with a badly-broken finger sustained in the same match.
Team-mates Olivier Elima, Ian Sibbit, James Donaldson, Chev Walker and Luke Gale are also currently sidelined just five weeks into the 2012 season.
"Coming on the back of the injuries to Luke Gale and Craig Kopczak, this is a further blow to our squad but we have other options in his position and will have to cope without Elliot for the time being," Bulls football manager Stuart Duffy said.
Kear, who can also play at full-back, joined Bradford during the off-season and scored a try on his debut for the club, albeit in a losing cause against Catalans Dragons.
