Winger Jon Scales could return to the Bradford Bulls line-up for the kick off of Super League III tomorrow after recovering from a broken thumb.

Bradford Bulls coach Matthew Elliott, who has yet to publicly reveal his line-up to face Huddersfield Giants at the McAlpine Stadium, said: "We will make a final decision on Jon after a fitness check today but at this stage I would rate his chances at 60-40 in favour."

Also in contention again is second-row Bernard Dwyer after close season groin surgery.

But up and coming forward Stuart Fielden will have to wait for his full debut despite some outstanding early season showings.

"I've told the lads Stuart is definitely coming. It's not a matter of if he makes his mark it just a case of when."

"I just need to see more of him performing consistently," he added.
