Vaughan has been one of Salford\u2019s most consistent performers since making the loan move from St Helens in March, making a total of 12 appearances.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s scored two tries in that time, too, but hasn\u2019t been on the end of a winning score line, with Salford\u2019s troubles on and off the field being well documented.<\/p>\n<p>However, it seems he may have played his last game for the club, after injuring his shoulder in the 58-0 loss against his parent club. The centre will see a surgeon in the coming days and the expectation is that he will have to have an operation to resolve the issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s in with the surgeon next week,\u201d Rowley said in his pre-match press conference ahead of Friday night\u2019s clash with Warrington Wolves. \u201cI think there\u2019s probably quite a bit of damage in there so I think it will probably require surgery so it will be a lengthy lay-off for him unfortunately and unfortunately for us as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s been great, he\u2019s been consistent every week and he\u2019s a kid who has played the odd game for St Helens prior to that so physically and everything it will have done him good in his development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe appreciate the energy and commitment he\u2019s shown our club in the time he\u2019s been here. We wish him well in his recovery and we stand with him all the way to get back on the field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Salford Red Devils boss on Danny Richardson<\/p>\n<p>While Vaughan may have been making his last run out in red on Sunday, Danny Richardson was making his first, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seriousaboutrl.com\/rugby-league-news-salford-red-devils-sign-hull-kr-man-on-short-term-loan-deal-105709\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">with the half-back joining last week on loan from Hull KR.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The deal was for an initial two weeks but asked whether there was scope to extend that loan, Rowley said: \u201cWe\u2019ll ask those questions next week.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s always an initial two weeks, with loans it\u2019s a minimum of two weeks and then generally week to week. Hull KR have been fantastic, they\u2019ve been forthcoming in trying to help our club in that respect and we appreciate that. We\u2019ll have those discussions and if it works for them then we\u2019d accept Danny with open arms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On his performance against Saints, Rowley added: I thought he was great, particularly in training but we didn\u2019t get to see enough of him in the right areas of the field, possession was low for us so hopefully we get a better chance to give him some quality field position and possession this week and we\u2019ll see more of him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/srl-logo.png\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Salford Red Devils boss Paul Rowley expects Jonny Vaughan to have to go under the knife after picking&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":233817,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4102],"tags":[4151,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-233816","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-rugby","8":"tag-rugby","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114787497371960555","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233816","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=233816"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233816\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/233817"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=233816"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=233816"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=233816"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
