FIRST TEAM SQUAD



LAST TIME OUT





2021 MATCHES



Head Coach: Matt Diskin


 

Matt Diskin started as a head coach with Bradford Bulls where he had two brief spells as a caretaker Head Coach in 2014 and 2016.

In 2017 he became head coach of Batley Bulldogs and during his 3 years there they finished 6th, 7th and 10th in the Championship.

In 2020 he moved to be the head coach of Oldham.

As a player he was a highly regarded hooker playing 254 games for Leeds Rhinos between 2001 and 2010. He then moved to Bradford Bulls for where he stayed for four seasons before retiring at the end of 2014.

He has also played for Yorkshire, England A, England and Great Britain.

 

 

Captain: Gareth Owen


Made his début with Salford in 2010 and played 37 games in Super League for them in 2010-2013. In 2014 he played on loan at Sheffield Eagles and then signed for Oldham in 2015.

He is a hooker and has occasionally played at half-back when required.


Star Man: Danny Langtree

 


Danny Langtree is in his second spell with Oldham having been there initially from 2012 to 2018. He was then signed by Hull FC but never got to play in their first team. During 2019 he went on loan to Doncaster and then was re-signed by Oldham in April.

He is a second rower who is a prolific try scorer. He has, so far, scored 92 tries for the Roughyeds.

 

New Signings for 2021

 



Loan signings

 

Earlier this year Oldham had young prop, Jack Bibby, on loan from Wigan but we think he has probably now returned. On April 28th centre, Jack Croft, came on loan from Wakefield.

 

 

 

The Fev connection

 

Amongst the pre ‘Summer Era’ players who have played for both Oldham and Fev are Terry Clawson, David Hobbs, Mick Morgan, Terry Ramshaw and Iva Ropati.
