Reardon re-signs for Bradford

Former Warrington back Stuart Reardon, 28, re-signs for Bradford Bulls
Utility back Stuart Reardon has been re-signed by former club Bradford Bulls following his release by Warrington Wolves at the end of the season.

Reardon became a free agent earlier this month after the Wolves decided not to renew his contract because he had only managed limited playing time since suffering an Achilles tendon injury in 2008.

But Bradford - who won the 2003 Super League Grand Final against Wigan, a game in which Reardon won the Harry Sunderland award for man of the match, have decided to take a chance on the 28-year-old.

'Everybody knows the quality of Stuart Reardon as a player and his ability to break tackles and get the ball over the try line,' said Bulls coach Steve McNamara.

'We're very excited to have him and Stuart is just as excited to be here.

'When he left Bradford Bulls he was still a young boy in a side surrounded by senior players.

'Now he is coming back as a senior player and we are very confident in his ability to be a fantastic player for us again.'

Reardon said he is 'really looking forward' to re-joining Bradford.

'It's my home town club and I'd like to thank them for giving me the opportunity to resume my career,' he added.

In his three previous seasons at Odsal, Reardon made 78 appearances for the club and scored 32 tries before joining Warrington at the beginning of 2006.ADNFCR-708-ID-19418056-ADNFCR
