BRADFORD BULLS head coach Kurt Haggerty has hailed Ethan Ryan following his 200th career appearance. Ryan, who has been a crucial figure in the Bulls’ maiden season back in Super League in 2026, registered 200 not out against Leeds Rhinos on Sunday, scoring one of the Bulls’ two tries in a 42-12 defeat. The two-time Irish international is well-known for his flying finishes, but Haggerty believes it’s his defensive work and toughness that sets Ryan apart. “What we’ve found from him this year, he has fallen into a senior player role so he has really matured. “He is very important to our group and we are lucky to have him here.”
