Neither Tony James nor Ryan Green has been chosen for the Welsh squad for the Four-nations Tournament in Southern Ireland.
It is unknown whether they were asked to join the squad and said no, or whether they simply were not chosen.
James has captained the side in the past. However his recent injury may have been taken into account.
Meanwhile a group of Hereford United fans are planning to travel and support the four Bulls players in the English squad and soak up some of the atmosphere in Sotheren Ireland at the same time.
