Workington Town are able to name a full 21-strong squad again for their Betfred Championship fixture at home to Bradford Bulls.
Last week they only had 19 players available for the Challenge Cup-tie at Barrow as they were hit by injuries, a suspension and unavailabilities.
But full-back Luke Broadbent has been recruited on loan from Warrington Wolves and several players are clear of injuries.
Forwards Jordan Thomson, Marcus O’Brien and Matty Henson return from injury to boost the squad.
Caine Barnes is serving the second of his three-match suspension; Hanley Dawson is unavailable and Lee Postlethwaite has to miss out on concussion protocol guidance.
Coach Chris Thorman said: “Jake Lightowler is still out with a knee problem, but he’s improving all the time and we expect to be able to provide a timescale soon on his return.
“Utility forward David Weetman is progressing very well as he steps up his recovery and we expect him to be available for selection in the next three to five weeks if progress continues.
“Stevie Scholey is also progressing well through his rehabilitation.”
Town squad: Broadbent, Bickerdike, Brown, Clarke, Clegg, Doran, Fitzsimmons, Forber, Henson, Hutchings, O’Brien, O’Donnell, Olstrom, Simons, Singleton, Steele, Teare, Thomas, Thomson, Walker, Young.
Bradford will pick from: Baldwinson, Butler, Crossley, Dawson-Jones, Doyle, B. Evans, R. Evans, Flanagan, Gill, Hall, Kear, Lilley, Millar, Murphy, Mustapha, O’Connor, Patton, Scurr, Tindall, Walker, Wallace.
