Waine and Littler secure loan moves

Oldham can confirm Emmanuel Waine and Sam Littler have both joined Keighley Cougars on loan deals until the end of the season.

The move will allow the second rowers valuable game time, with Roughyeds having a recall option.

"Manu and Sam have found game time limited due to the stop-start nature of our season so far," said head coach Alan Kilshaw.

"It's important they get some meaningful minutes under their belt. This move is beneficial for Keighley in the short term, and for us at Oldham as well, with both players getting valuable reps and experience in Championship games."
