Roughyeds' rout Coventry

Date published: 11 June 2018


Second-row pair Craig Briscoe and Danny Langtree each scored a brace of tries in Oldham's 60-0 win at Coventry Bears.

This seventh Betfred League 1 win in a row for Roughyeds kept them in third place in the table, behind Bradford Bulls and York City Knights.

It was the fourth time in league and cup this year that Scott Naylor's have men 'nilled' their opponents - and it confirmed Oldham's standing as the second best defensive side in the division behind Bradford.

Oldham's other tries (11 in total) were scored by Ben Davies, Ben West, Matty Wilkinson, Danny Rasool, Paul Crook, Kyran Johnson and Dave Hewitt

Paul Crook landed six conversions from eight attempts, while Dave Hewitt put two over following Crook's withdrawal midway through the second half under a squad rotation scheme.
