WE are happy to announce the arrival of mature student Liam Brown as the fifth member of our club media team.
A local man, 32-year-old Liam has joined us for the full season as an intern from Huddersfield University where he is studying for a degree in broadcast journalism. He is in his third year.
Headed by Roger Halstead, a member of the Rugby League Writers and Broadcasters’ Association for more than 50 years, our team also comprises of David Murgatroyd (official club photographer), David Naylor (website, social media and digital expert) and Peter Gray (film and match video operator).
Liam will be assisting in all areas of the media operation but specialising in video interviews and other film work in which he will operate under the wing of Dave Naylor.
Said Liam:
“I’m really looking forward to this hands-on experience working in media. I hope to learn a lot over the course of the coming season and operating alongside Roger, the two Davids and Peter I’m sure I will.”
He’s not a diehard Roughyeds man, but he’s no stranger to rugby league either, having played at Oldham St Anne’s from under-11s to under-18s.
Liam added:
“By the end of the season I’m sure I’ll be just as mad keen as everybody else,”
