Reagan Robert William Ogle (born 29 March 1999) is an Australian professional footballer who plays as a defender for National League North club Scunthorpe United.

Career

Accrington Stanley

Ogle started his career in the youth system at Accrington Stanley starting a two-year scholarship in the summer of 2015. In November 2016, he made his professional debut in an EFL Trophy group-stage match against Wolverhampton Wanderers U23. He came on as a substitute for Seamus Conneely in the second half in a 4–0 defeat.

In February 2017, Ogle joined Northern Premier League Division One North side Ramsbottom United on loan. He scored on his debut for the club in a 4–0 win over Ossett Albion.

In March 2017, he joined Premier League side Stoke City on trial.

On 23 August 2018, Ogle joined Southport on an initial one-month loan deal, citing that he was "really looking forward to playing some more competitive first team football". After impressing during five starts, Ogle's loan was extended until the end of the 2018–2019 season, with Ogle saying, "I’m pleased that I've been able to put in some good performances. The fans have been great to me and I'm enjoying my football at Southport. I know this club will help me develop into a much better player." Ogle won the Trust in Yellow player of the month for September 2018. On 20 July 2019, Ogle re-joined Southport on loan until January.

On 19 October 2020, Ogle joined AFC Fylde on loan until January. He played six times in all competitions for the club.

On 1 March 2021, Ogle joined National League side Altrincham on a one-month loan. The loan was then extended for the remainder of the 2020-21 season.

Ogle was released by Accrington at the end of the 2020–21 season.

Hartlepool United

On 12 July 2021, Ogle joined newly promoted League Two side Hartlepool United on a two-year deal. In the 2021–22 season, Ogle made 24 appearances in all competitions for Pools.

Scunthorpe United

At the start of the 2022–23 season, Ogle's first-team opportunities at Hartlepool became limited due to him becoming the club's third-choice right-back. As a result, on 29 July 2022, he signed for National League club Scunthorpe United on a free transfer. Despite relegation to the National League North, Ogle received plaudits for his performances and was named as the club's Supporters' and Players' Player of the Year at the end of the 2022–23 season. He made a total of 38 league appearances in his debut season for The Iron.

In June 2023, it was revealed Scunthorpe had turned a bid from National League side Oldham Athletic to sign Ogle. In a statement, the club said he remained firmly in manager Jimmy Dean's plans for the upcoming 2023–24 season.

Personal life

Ogle was born in Wollongong, Australia and moved to England when he was 11. He attended Ribblesdale High School in Clitheroe.

Style of play

Ogle predominantly plays at right-back but is a versatile footballer who can also play at left-back, centre-half and as a central midfielder. Upon signing for Scunthorpe, he described himself as "very athletic, quick and strong and like to put in a tackle". He is also known for having a long throw-in.
