Salford Red Devils have signed half-back Rowan Milnes on loan for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n

Salford were forced to cancel last Sunday’s game against Wakefield<\/a> Trinity over concerns for their players’ welfare, with only two of their 17-man squad having any Super League experience in the last 12 months.<\/p>\n

Milnes, 25, is the sixth player brought in on loan this week, having spent the last three weeks on loan at Hull KR without playing a game.<\/p>\n

He had been at Castleford Tigers since the start of last season, but they terminated his contract after a falling-out with interim boss Chris Chester.<\/p>\n

Salford, meanwhile, continue to haemorrhage players with Matty Foster and Ethan Ryan leaving to join Championship side Oldham.<\/p>\n

The club have already seen 14 senior professionals leave this season because of their financial issues.<\/p>\n

Ryan made 31 appearances for Salford over the last two seasons, scoring nine tries, while Foster had played 16 games in the current campaign.<\/p>\n

Ryan Brierley and Jack Ormondroyd also left Salford to join Oldham recently.<\/p>\n

Ryan told the Red Devils website, external<\/a>: “It’s really sad to see what’s happening this year, given the squad we had at the start.<\/p>\n

“I’m really hoping all this mess manages to iron itself out and the club can progress and move forward.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Salford Red Devils have signed half-back Rowan Milnes on loan for the rest of the season.
