Wilson featured from the interchange bench in last year’s Reserves Grand Final win over St Helens at Robin Park Arena.
Bradford head coach Eamon O’Carroll said: “I am really pleased to get Lucas and Harvey in, we are in a position at the minute with injuries and where the game is at with suspensions where we are really low on numbers.
“Lucas is an energiser; he has some vigour with how he carries the ball and how he defends without it.

“When I spoke to John Duffy it was clear how highly Harvey is thought of and from the games I have seen, having watched him in pre-season against Warrington and a game for Widnes, he has good leg speed and he works really hard so he will settle into the group really well.
“We are extremely grateful to the two clubs for allowing their players to join us on loan and I am really looking forward to working with them both.”
