I was delighted when he signed and now I am kind of relieved that he has retired. Matt Moylan, if speculation is correct was Leigh's 3rd choice half for the 2024 season. He came with a rich history in the NRL, but speculation suggested he was slowing down and issues tackling. Pace was never the issue with Moylan at Leigh, his speed of thought allowed him ample space and time and with soft hands produced some champagne moments, hiding behind the sticks, a one-two with Ricky Leutele down the blind-side, to name just two.
At the end of the day he arrived at the LSV as a half-back and retired as a full-back. What the Leopards really need now we have a solid full-back in place, is a top of the range half-back to compliment Lachlan Lam. Lammy's weaknesses are that of a pedestrian kicking game and an inability to work both side of the attack. The main focus for me would be to find a half who favours the right edge and can kick from tee and out of the hand. Good luck to Chezzy in finding one because this might be the last piece of puzzle.
