Bradford Bulls' new signing Manase Manuokafoa will miss the start of the 2012 Super League season after picking up a serious knee injury in training ahead of yesterday's Boxing Day friendly defeat at Castleford Tigers.
The former Parramatta prop, signed as a replacement for Andy Lynch, sustained a ruptured cruciate ligament in the Bulls' final training session before the clash with Castleford and will be sidelined for between eight and 10 weeks.
In Manuokafoa's absence, Bradford coach Mick Potter gave a senior baptism to 19-year-old front rower Johnny Payne against his home-town club as the Tigers gained a 28-18 victory in coach Ian Millward's first match in charge.
First-half tries by new signing Josh Griffin and academy utility back Josh Atkinson helped Millward's men to a 10-4 half-time lead.
Atkinson and Griffin both added further tries in the second half while another new signing, ex-Leigh prop Steve Nash, and young scrum-half Ben Johnson also touched down.
Brardford had all the early play but a solitary try to Jason Crookes was all they had to show for a lot of pressure and when the home side brought on hooker Daryl Clark the game turned in the Tigers' favour.
The Bulls, who also gave debuts to trialist Phil Joseph, took an early lead through Jason Crookes and scored further tries through Chev Walker, Bryn Hargreaves and Shaun Ainscough.
