Nathan Chappell (born 4 December 1989) is a professional Rugby League player at the Oldham Roughyeds.[2]

He began his career at Newsome Panthers at the age of 7 where he played until he signed at Huddersfield Giants aged 17. After 3 years at the club, 1 year at Castleford Tigers and a 2-year stint at Featherstone Rovers, he moved to Australia to play in the Canberra Raiders Cup with Goulburn Workers Bulldogs.[3] He also represented the Canberra team. He played there for 2 years before returning to England where he signed for Featherstone once again.

Chappell has arguably the fastest recorded hat-trick in rugby league (Featherstone v York, minutes 73-78), along with old teammate Greg Eden (Castleford v Leigh, minutes 33-38), which are both within a 5 minute period.[4]

Now signed with the Oldham Roughyeds until the end of the 2018 season.

His preferred position is centre, followed by second row forward.
