Paul Deacon Could Be Out For The Rest Of The Season

Bradford Bulls skipper Paul Deacon could miss the final five games of the Super League season after a recurrence of his hamstring injury.
The 29-year-old pulled up during a training session on Tuesday and is now waiting for a scan to discover the full extent of the injury.
"It's a devastating blow to the player," coach Steve McNamara told the Bradford Telegraph and Argus.
"We're still not sure of the severity but we do feel it's a new strain."
Deacon recently returned to the Bulls side and looked in good form.
"He'd just found his way back and was really looking forward to a strong finish for himself and to help the team," McNamara added.
"We lost him at the back end of last season at a very important stage and it’s really affected a big chunk of his season this time, so he’s desperately disappointed."
