Other notable squad numbers were new signings Kieran Gill, Ryan Miller and Declan Patton took the 4,5 and 6 shirts, whilst Anthony Walker was promoted to number 8.[43] The Boxing Day clash against Halifax was postponed due to adverse weather conditions.[44]

January 2022

Bradford announced another friendly, this time against RFL League 1 side Midlands Hurricanes at Odsal on 12 February. As this is during the RFL Championship season, the Bulls will have a mixture of players not selected for the league game and academy/reserve players.[45] The Bulls fell short in their first pre-season friendly losing 28-22 to Batley Bulldogs.[46] Bradford put on a strong showing against a youthful Hull F.C. side as the Bulls ran out 42-12 winners in the second pre-season friendly with the highlights coming from David Foggin-Johnston's two tries and Dec Patton kicking six goals for a 100% conversion rate.[47] The fixtures for the 2022 Summer Bash were released and it was revealed that the Bulls would face local rivals Halifax Panthers on 30 July at Headingley Stadium.[48] Bradford lost their last pre-season friendly 12-30 against historic rivals Leeds Rhinos in front of a huge 7,237 crowd.[49] The Bulls got their 2022 RFL Championship season off to a great start with a comprehensive 46-16 win against Dewsbury Rams with Matty Dawson-Jones and new signing Keiran Gill both scoring two tries each.[50]
