Buoyant Oldham target vital home win

Date published: 04 March 2011


RUGBY UNION: ELATED by a superb win over Whitehaven, Oldham go in search of more vital points in their bid to avoid relegation from the North Lancs and Cumbria Division tomorrow.

Guy Lovegreen’s side are at home to basement boys Keswick, who are also in need of a victory.

The reverse fixture ended all square at 8-8 earlier in the season, but Oldham’s pack has come on since then.

A win, plus a bonus point, would lift Oldham out of the relegation places.

Adam Waterhouse is added to last week’s squad, while second row Gary Phelan faces a late fitness test on a back problem.
