Warriors' big test

MICHAEL Withers heads a pack of ex-Bulls itching to take on their former club at the Grattan Stadium tonight.

Warriors coach Brian Noble, for so long the instigator of success for the Yorkshire outfit, and prop Stuart Fielden also go back to the venue where they won the Grand Final title three times in the last decade.

Centre, Withers, made over 150 appearances for the Bulls before switching to the JJB in the close season - but says he is ready to start a new chapter in his career with the Warriors.

"It's just a normal game to me this weekend but I will enjoy going back," Withers said.

"We get paid to go out there and win for the team. Playing for Bradford is now history now I'm with Wigan.

The side have had a mixed start to the season - defeat against Warrington on the opening days followed by a battling victory in France over Catalans Dragons and Noble names an unchanged squad for the trip, after Gareth Hock was cleared by an RFL disciplinary panel in midweek after being put on report against Catalans.
