Long reveals Law Cup squad
Date published: 20 January 2024
Sean Long has confirmed everybody will get a run-out at the Crown Oil Arena tomorrow
Jamie Ellis comes into Roughyeds' boss Sean Long’s squad for tomorrow’s (Sunday) Law Cup clash against Rochdale Hornets (3pm kick off).
Ellis, who sat out the Keighley game with a back problem, is now back fit and comes in for Mackenzie Turner.
The former Rhinos winger pulled his hamstring during the 46-10 win over Keighley in an attempt to prevent Billy Walkley’s length-of-the-field try, and thus will not be risked.
Similarly to the Keighley game, Long has named a 25-man squad with Turner, Sambou and Gallagher missing out due to injury.
He confirmed everybody will get a run-out at the Crown Oil Arena tomorrow with the squad having impressed during pre-season training.
Roughyeds are set to begin their defence of the trophy in front of a four figure crowd at Rochdale.
Hornets, earlier in the week, confirmed pay on the day is available with less than 400 tickets left.
Tickets will be available via the ticket office, rather than the turnstiles.
Fans are encouraged to purchase online in advance to avoid disappointment.
Tickets, which are priced at £10 for adults and free for under-16s, can be purchased over at the Rochdale ticketing page.
Squad in full: Agoro, Aldridge, Astley, T Chapelhow, J Chapelhow, Craven, Ellis, Farnworth, Hirst, Jack Johnson, Josh Johnson, Kopczak, Lawton, Moran, Morgan, O’Keefe, Paga, Rawsthorne, Taylor, J Turner, C Tyrer, K Tyrer, Wardle, Whittel, Wildie.
