He was far from a flop, but he was also far from the stand out success you would expect from the dollars and hype that was thrown at him.

Remember when LU posters would claim that he was basically the best player to ever play Rugby League, and his return would prove that to be the case.

The guy was like the Bruce Lee of Rugby League.

Maloney has hardly been brilliant. Without SBW you don't win your premiership...without Maloney you probably still do.
That's a lie.

SBW was better, but Maloney was huge. With bwaiff still in the halves we wouldn't have gone close, Maloney was brilliant in 2013.

Both $BW and Maloney were instrumental in the NFL passes that saw the Rorters win, so I think it's fair to say they both played their part.

It was SBW's 2nd half in the GF that won the premiership, not Maloney. I stand by what I said, there is a good reason your halves look even more terrible this year...SBW isn't there to cover their ineptness. Maloney has been solid don't get me wrong, did you overpay, yes, however not by much. He isn't a bad buy, isn't a great buy, somewhere in between. Nothing wrong with that.

Maloney was quite comfortably the best player in the GF, then Moa, then DCE and then SBW.

Maloney was amazing in 2013, which is what were talking about. He's been inconsistent in 2014/15 but still been decent. In 2013 he was worth every penny and than some.
