OTT SIGNS NEW DEAL

Bradford Bulls are delighted to announce Australian hooker Tyran Ott has signed a new one-year deal to extend his stay with the club!

The 24-year-old arrived at Bartercard Odsal Stadium in March, making his debut against Halifax Panthers on Good Friday and has been ever-present since.

The former North Sydney Bears star’s versatility has proven valuable in recent weeks, with Ott able to feature in the halves as well as at hooker. 

Tyran believes he will benefit from a full pre-season under Eamon O’Carroll – whilst also reserving praise for the club’s supporters. 

“I'm really chuffed to get it sorted, I like the direction the club is going in, we are building each week and I am really excited for the future,” said Ott, who is sponsored by Mary-Jo and Dot Daly. 

“I’m getting better and better, I am getting a bit more comfortable in understanding how the team plays. I missed out on pre-season so it has taken a bit of time but playing multiple positions is something I have enjoyed and it is great to have the support from the boys around me. 

“Now I can plan for next year and make sure I get my life away from the club sorted so I know where I am and I am really excited for what happens on the field. 

“The fans are fantastic, I really enjoy the support we have, the number of fans that travel to our away games is exceptional.” 

Bradford Bulls Head Coach Eamon O’Carroll, who is sponsored by M & S Combustion, said: 

“I’m delighted, Tyran is a really valuable member of our team and will play a key role in how we progress into 2025.

“He’s a very intelligent footballer with some great technical skills, his versatility has been invaluable to us but also the way he conducts himself around the group, the way he continues to drive standards on and off the field. 

“He’s been unlucky with the number of minutes he’s played with Mitch playing so well in that starting role and he [Tyran] keeps knocking on my door asking to play more! 

“Tyran’s gone from strength to strength since arriving at the club and I am looking forward to seeing his progression over the next 18 months.”
