mmm - stand in front of a 680kg weight and let it hit you at a metre/second!!

Molloy was at Wigan when Vievers coached there. He did well in our reserves but went to Huddersfield along with Sarsfield. It did not work out for either which may be a reflection on Huddersfield who regularly failed to field reserve teams for fixtures. For the physics guru, the ability to 'ride' and 'evade' tackles alongside balance are often more important than pure physics. A Vievers signing IMO but was a decent prospect.

Jonny Molloy is a very decent player, had a run of games at Huddersfield under Nathan Brown and did very well, certainly looked like he was going to become established. He then suffered a bad knee injury which he subsequently re-injured. Due to injuries he never saw the first team again.

His failure to "make it" would not be a reflection on Huddersfield but bad luck with injuries. I understand that when released in November he already had a deal agreed with you, but then you imploded prior to the good Doctor's rescue.

You will no doubt have thoroughly tested his knee to give a three year contract.

Not the signing to transform your team but if fit a very good signing as a squad man with high potential upside.

Finally, he is not a big forward, unless he has seriously bulked up I doubt he is 16 stone, more of a Lee Gilmore or Stephen Wild build and like both of them a great enthusiasm for tackling.

Quite. The more elastic the collision, the more energy used in less productive ways, for our 'go forward' at least. This is commonly known as the 'Neil Baynes' effect.

What I want to know is if Craig Makin falls down in the woods, does he make a sound?

Seriously tho lets hope he can add some steel to our pack

If his deal was agreed pre takeover
'au contraire mon frere' this is Salford, we have a 'knack' ered for picking up Jack Rodwells
Bailey - Phil
Talau - Willie
Edmondson - Mark
Jonkers -Tim
Jowitt - Warren

Mind you we picked up David Hodgson when he was supposedly pensioned off by wigan as a certifiable wreck ..


Jon Molloy , a relation to Steve Molloy ?

So a player he wanted to sign after he was signed by former NRL coach Brown,now at St Helens.

Is it the case that Foran and Mauro were also identified last year,by Veivers,as the targets,but were unable to be completed signings until Wilkinson sorted out the money,which didn't materialise because the bank account was frozen ?
Is this 'old money' being used now or is it Dr Koukash money ?
Has the Director of rugby,Graham Lowe,approved these signings ?

It's paid for out of the Myler money!
Of course there's no old money.
Anything agreed pre takeover would still need to be ratified by Lowe and the Doctor.

A thread with comedy, rugby league, philosophy and a bit of science. PERFECT!

Did ok for us in the few games he did play, was just breaking into the 1st team then got injured and by the time he was fit we had O'Donnell, Fa'aologo, Patrick, Gilmour, Lawrence, Ferguson all in front of him so was never going to break back in front of them.

Hope he turns out ok for you .

Sorry.I meant an old agreement with the old administration.
If the young man has hung on,since November time,to sign for the club during the uncertainty it is to his credit and I wish him all the very best of luck in his future career.

Molloy's agent has a job within the club apparently...there's your answer as to why you've signed him

No relation as far as I know
