Bradford Bulls hooker James Segeyaro has suffered a serious knee injury.
Bulls interim coach Lee Greenwood has confirmed that former National League hooker James Segeyaro will miss the rest of the season with a “serious knee injury.
” He limped off the pitch in Bradford’s last game, a fantastic win over Buttley, after being hit by a heavy tackle while preparing for a try.
This could be Segeyaro’s final act and appearance in Bulls colors, as his current contract only runs through the end of the season.
Ahead of this Sunday’s home game against Newcastle, manager Greenwood told T&A: “However, with the loss of Jorge Taufa to a six-game suspension and James Segeyaro out for the rest of the season, some people will have to fill in.
“He’s at Batley.
I had a serious knee injury, but the year is over, including the play-offs.
” “But at least it gives other players a chance.
” “A week of no games has helped people get fit.
We’ve come close, but we’ll probably be looking for players like Chester Butler and Brad England in the future.
“Chester’s definitely not going to be available for Newcastle, but Brad had a bit of practice on Tuesday night so There might be a chance.
“We’ll have a look at him over the weekend and see if we use him.
” Greenwood was also suspended for six games by the RFL Arbitration Panel on Monday night.
He also commented on Taufa, who was sentenced to punishment.
Bull can appeal if he wishes.
He said: “I don’t know exactly what was said because Jason Hurst (CEO) was with me last night, not me.
” “But obviously after looking at the results.
.
.
, we felt we should defer to the referee’s decision.
”The report and Barrow’s statement were delayed.
“The court threw out the judgment, and as bad as the judgment was, we felt we had to fight Jorge’s case.
“The decision to downgrade the attack from Class F to Class E.
Whoever beat him, I don’t know why, still suspended him for six games.
“We disagree with this decision and as a club we are considering our options.
“However, we will consider whether it is worth appealing and if it changes the outcome of the verdict.
You have to ask yourself if you feel “We’ll make a decision on this ASAP.
