Oldham Rugby League Club has taken its 2023 squad to 24 with the signings of young guns Ellis Keppel and George Hirst.
Keppel (20), once of St Helens, can play full-back, wing and second-row, while Huddersfield-based Hirst, who has played for England Community Lions under-19s, operates at centre and second-row.
"Versatility is a key word for the modern rugby league player and Ellis and George are no exception," said Roughyeds' boss Stu Littler.
