Jamie Langley and Brett Kearney will both miss the Bulls' Challenge Cup quarter-final clash with Warrington.
Despite making progress in their recoveries from respective quad and foot injuries, both are at least another week away from full fitness.
Stuart Reardon also misses out with a recurrence of the hamstring injury that kept him out for three weeks earlier in the campaign, giving boss Steve McNamara a dilemma in the three-quarters, with Jason Crookes also currently injured.
Playmaker Matt Orford is included in the 19-man squad for the game but faces a race against time to be fit after missing three games with a shoulder problem.
It means 19-year-old scrum half Cain Southernwood is called into the squad to provide cover and Danny Addy is included again after making his debut in last week's defeat to Leeds.
Bulls' 19-man squad: Danny Addy, Cain Southernwood, Rikki Sheriffe, Craig Kopczak, Andy Lynch, Nick Scruton, Steve Menzies, Joe Wardle, Wayne Godwin, Heath L’Estrange, Dave Halley, Chris Nero, James Donaldson, Paul Sykes, Glenn Hall, Michael Platt, Michael Worrincy, Elliott Whitehead, Matt Orford.
