Sheffield only have Menzie Yere...
Salford would have three, which would even eclipse Hull KR when Stanley Gene and Makali Aizue (currently with Dewsbury Rams) played for the Rovers.

I suspect that Koukash and Noble intend to sack all existing imports to make way for the new import stars envisaged.
Mind you teen sensation Theo Fages, being French and having some Salford academy training, is not considered part of any import quota.

You actually list at least 6 players who are all non-fed trained. So they can offload whoever they want, it still won't change the fact that all those players will be unable to join the club.

But, equally possibly, they may have none.
It is actually Whitehaven that have the most PNG players in the UK, having both Jesse Joe Parker and Rodney Pora in their squad.

Although it's frustrating to go over old ground (although I appreciate Salford fans won't see it as such) the chances of Chase getting a new visa are zero. Zilch. No chance. At all. The regulations set down in law are clear - you cannot be granted a visa if you have an 'unspent' criminal conviction (or even a 'spent' conviction within the last five years for a violent crime!).
See the case of a soldier who served in the British army, was married to an English woman and has two English children. Due to a conviction (through military court) he was refused a working visa.

Sorry Salford fans, there is no chance. However, it poses a bigger problem for Cas as the NRL teams know they can pick him up for nothing when his current visa expires and Cas will get nothing for their prized player.

| Also, Billy Twelvetrees. (Just on the strength of the name). If things go well he'll then transfer the name to one of his horses.

Simms left the club a while back, his role is now being undertaken by Graham Lowe.

Only two people in the entire world know the names of all the Salford signings: Dr. Marwyn Koukash and Brian Noble. Negotiations have been conducted in conditions of absolute secrecy, with different player managers and the players themselves knowing only the fate of one or perhaps two other players.
But within a matter of hours the entire rugby league world will know.
These new signings are players who will strike fear in the hearts of the Big 8 teams' players, coaches and fans.
This announcement will possibly change the way the rugby league world thinks of Salford for a generation to come.

Is it the Williams sisters? Recon they'd be able to do a decent stint for Salford in the forwards...
