Good News: It does mean we have considerable amount of money to spend and that we are aiming high.

So a bit of the jigsaw is coming together then, we sacrifice Blythe and Penny's salaries in order to bring in Maloney.

Is that like selling your kids' push bikes to put towards your Ferrari?

Doubt he'll come, but it's a statement that we are in the market for a half back and ready to spend, hopefully a few agents in Sydney are listening.

Francis Maloney? He's top notch, maybe a few years past his peak but his style complements Lineham.

James Maloney....wow!! Steve Price is assistant to Sharks isn't he? Could come together

James Maloney...3 year deal offered...discuss

Are we sure this isn't the bumper deal that Fitzpatrick said was offered to a world-class halfback that, quote "would have made him the best paid player in Super League", but was turned down by said player? That would make sense? Maybe seriousaboutRL.com have reported the story a bit late?

I suppose he could change his mind if Price was to come
over, but I seriously doubt it. A current Aussie international who could earn the same or more in his pleasant home country? He probably would walk out after one week training in the bleak Cheshire midwinter...

He will join us as the former, and soon turn into the latter

'Serious about RL' is FAKE NEWS.

Don't want him waste of money
He's a penalty conceding machine
The very last thing we need
Good half backs play well behind a good pack .....repeat
a Good pack
Enough said
