Every Super League club’s overseas quota spots situation after Jarrod Wallace makes Catalans Dragons debut

Clubs are beginning to turn their recruitment towards 2025, which means every Super League club’s current quota situation is of increasing intrigue.

Every club is permitted seven overseas players on their quota – with five clubs having spots available at the time of updating this article on July 27.

Here’s a full breakdown of every Super League club’s overseas quota situation…

Castleford Tigers – 6

Castleford now have a quota spot free after Charbel Tasipale’s recent departure. They replaced Albert Vete with Tex Hoy mid-season, and the latter has penned a two-year contract extension.

Contracted: Jacob Miller (2025), Tex Hoy (2026), Liam Horne (2026), Elie El-Zakhem (2025), Nixon Putt (2025), Sylvester Namo (2025)

Catalans Dragons – 6

Following an incident deemed ‘contrary to the club’s values’, Catalans terminated the contracts of overseas duo Siosiua Taukeiaho and Jayden Nikorima with immediate effect, along with that of French youngster Damel Diakhate.

Accordingly, the Dragons – who brought in Tariq Sims and Bayley Sironen in the off-season as well as powerhouse prop Chris Satae from Hull FC – had two quota spots free. That’s now been halved however with the arrival of Jarrod Wallace from the Dolphins over in the NRL, with the forward penning a deal until the end of the season earlier this month.

Come 2025, NRL superstar Luke Keary will arrive from Sydney Roosters, along with fellow Australian Nick Cotric, so if Wallace is to stick around, then at least one other overseas ace will have to depart the Stade Gilbert Brutus.

Contracted: Manu Ma’u (2024), Chris Satae (2025), Matt Ikuvalu (2024), Tariq Sims (2025), Bayley Sironen (2025), Jarrod Wallace (2024)

Huddersfield Giants – 6

The Giants – currently without a head coach following the dismissal of Ian Watson – filled their quota spots, having brought in forward Jack Murchie (now injured long-term) and half-back Adam Clune from the NRL prior to the season getting underway. But with captain Luke Yates departing for Warrington earlier than originally expected, they now have a spot free.

And come 2024, the Giants will definitely have another spot open up, with Cook Islands international Esan Marsters having signed a three-year contract with Salford 2025.

Contracted: Esan Marsters (2024), Kevin Naiqama (2024), Tui Lolohea (2026), Sebastine Ikahihifo (2025), Jack Murchie (2026), Adam Clune (2026)

Hull FC – 5

Hull – who have just brought King Vuniyayawa in on loan until the end of the current season – now have two quota spots available.

FC have seen Fa’amanu Brown (St George Illawarra Dragons), Tex Hoy (Castleford Tigers), Franklin Pele & Jayden Okunbor (both Bradford Bulls) depart throughout the season.

Come 2025, John Asiata will take a spot, with the Leigh Leopards captain joining the Airlie Birds on a three-year deal.

Contracted: Herman Ese’ese (2026), Carlos Tuimavave (2024), Ligi Sao (2025), Jed Cartwright (2025), King Vuniyayawa (on loan from Salford until the end of the season)

Hull KR – 7

Hull KR made four new overseas signings ahead of the new season in the shape of Peta Hiku, Tyrone May, Jai Whitbread & Kelepi Tanginoa.

Robins boss Willie Peters has already confirmed that hooker Matt Parcell will leave the club upon the expiry of his contract at the end of this season, with his quota spot set to be taken by Sydney Roosters veteran Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, who has signed a one-year deal for 2025.

Contracted: Sauaso Sue (2025), Tom Opacic (2024), Peta Hiku (2026), Matt Parcell (2024), Kelepi Tanginoa (2026), Tyrone May (2025), Jai Whitbread (2026)

Leeds Rhinos – 7

The Rhinos went big on a heavy recruitment drive ahead of 2024, bringing Lachlan Miller, Matt Frawley & Paul Momirovski over from the NRL as well as signing Brodie Croft and Andy Ackers from Salford, all of whom formed a new-look spine in Rohan Smith’s side.

Contracted: Lachlan Miller (2026), Sam Lisone (2025), Rhyse Martin (2024), Matt Frawley (2025), Paul Momirovski (2025), Brodie Croft (2026), David Fusitu’a (2024)

Leigh Leopards – 7

Leigh were full up on quota space for 2024 having signed former Australia international Matt Moylan on a two-year deal ahead of this season.

However, they offloaded Fijian prop Ben Nakubuwai – who is off-contract – to Featherstone Rovers on a loan running until the end of the season, freeing up one of their 2024 spots to pave the way for the signing of Aaron Pene following his release from NRL outfit Melbourne Storm.

Come the end of the season, it’s also been confirmed that captain John Asiata will be departing for Hull FC, whilst NRL returns for Tom Amone and Kai O’Donnell have already been confirmed. Samoa international Ricky Leutele is off-contract and his future remains unclear.

Accordingly, there could be major turnover in the Leopards camp this winter, with the Leopards recently having announced the signing of full-back David Armstrong from Newcastle Knights on a three-year deal from 2025.

Star halfback Lachlan Lam was born in Sydney and is a current Papua New Guinea international, but he doesn’t count on the overseas quota thanks to his spell playing at Wigan St Patricks as a child whilst his dad and current Leigh coach Adrian, was playing for the Warriors, so he can be counted as a homegrown player.

Contracted: Ricky Leutele (2024), John Asiata (2024), Tom Amone (2024), Edwin Ipape (2025), Kai O’Donnell (2025), Matt Moylan (2025), Aaron Pene (2026)

London Broncos – 6

The Broncos have one quota spot remaining this season.

Mike Eccles’ side signed former Hull KR prop Rhys Kennedy and Italy international half-back Jack Campagnolo for 2024. The Broncos also brought in dual-code international Hakim Miloudi, but French players do not count on the quota.

Contracted: Ethan Natoli (2024), Rhys Kennedy (2024), Jarred Bassett (2024), Emmanuel Waine (2024), Dean Parata (2024), Jack Campagnolo (2024)

Salford Red Devils – 7

Having made three new overseas signings during the off-season, bringing in Papua New Guinea international Nene Macdonald and Australian half-back Cade Cust from Wigan as well as Samoa international winger David Nofoaluma, Salford saw fan favourite Ken Sio depart on the eve of the 2024 season on compassionate grounds.

Accordingly, they had filled their quota spots. However, Nofoaluma departed the Red Devils and returned to Australia after making just two appearances.

Salford filled Nofoaluma’s quota spot having signed young forward Loghan Lewis from Canberra Raiders at the end of May, but have now sent King Vuniyayawa on loan to Hull FC until the end of the current campaign and brought in Jayden Nikorima on a deal until the end of the 2025 season following his release from fellow Super League outfit Catalans.

Contracted: Sam Stone (2026), Shane Wright (2026), Tim Lafai (2025), Nene Macdonald (2027), Cade Cust (2024, option for 2025), Loghan Lewis (2024, option for 2025), Jayden Nikorima (2025)

St Helens – 7

Paul Wellens’ side are full on quota space following the signing of Fiji international Waqa Blake, who joined the club in the off-season on a one-year deal for 2024.

Contracted: Curtis Sironen (2025), Agnatius Paasi (2025), James Bell (2025), Konrad Hurrell (2024, option for 2025), Sione Mata’utia (2024, option for 2025), Moses Mbye (2025), Waqa Blake (2024)

Warrington Wolves – 7

The Wolves – who brought Lachlan Fitzgibbon & Zane Musgrove over from the NRL in the off-season as well as recruiting Papua New Guinea international Rodrick Tai – had one quota space available following the release of former New Zealand and Samoa international prop Sam Kasiano back in January.

Sam Burgess’ side though brought Huddersfield captain Luke Yates in earlier than originally scheduled, so their quota spots are full now.

Contracted: Matt Dufty (2026), Lachlan Fitzgibbon (2026), Paul Vaughan (2025), Josh Drinkwater (2024), Rodrick Tai (2024), Zane Musgrove (2025), Luke Yates (2026)

Contracted: Bevan French (2028), Jai Field (2027), Kaide Ellis (2026), Abbas Miski (2027), Adam Keighran (2025), Willie Isa (2024), Patrick Mago (2026, option for 2027)
