Bradford are to release Australian second row Glenn Morrison at the end of the season.

The 33-year-old former Parramatta forward, who is in his third year with the Bulls, has made just eight appearances in 2009 due to wrist and rib problems.

He was also troubled with a knee injury last year and in total has made 49 appearances for the club, scoring 21 tries.

Bulls coach Steve McNamara said: "Glenn has been tremendous for the club both on and off the field and it goes without saying that we wish him every success for the future.

"Decisions on player's futures are ongoing and the decision to not to offer Glenn another contract was purely a business decision made, we feel, in the best interests of the club."

The announcement of Morrison's departure comes soon after it was confirmed hooker Terry Newton would be joining Wakefield in 2010.

On the recruitment side, the Bulls have already agreed deals with Manly pair Glenn Hall and Heath L'Estrange for next season.
