Big chance for young charges

Date published: 15 March 2013


OLDHAM RL boss Scott Naylor is keen to see how his young side will cope with opponents from a higher division in the third round of the Tetley’s Challenge Cup.

Roughyeds will take on Kingstone Press Championship side Hunslet Hawks at the South Leeds Stadium on April 7.

Chris Hamilton: “We’ll give it our best shot.

“Scott Naylor sees the tie as a great opportunity for us to assess where we stand when paired with a team from the Championship.

“We will give it 100-per-cent and see what happens.”

The last time the teams met was at Whitebank in the opening game of the 2011 Northern Rail Cup when Oldham triumphed 28-22.
