ROUGHYEDS v HORNETS

Oldham play local rivals Rochdale Hornets in the first match of the new National Cup competition. There are now only six teams in the Roughyeds group after Keighley were switched to the other group to replace York Wasps.

I expect ORLFC coach John Harbin to name the same side which plyed so well last week against Featherstone Rovers. Phil Farrell is still out with a knee injury and reports suggest that he could be missing for several weeks.
