Jon Molloy is an English rugby league footballer who played for Wakefield Trinity in the Super League. He is a second-row or loose forward and has previously played for the Huddersfield Giants.
Playing career[edit]
A former Wigan Warriors academy player, Molloy began his professional career at Huddersfield Giants.[3] In May 2011, he signed a dual-registration contract with Halifax,[4] but suffered a serious shoulder injury which ruled him out for the rest of the season.[5] His first team opportunities at Huddersfield were limited, and he only made five first team appearances for the club.
In March 2013, Molloy joined Salford,[6] but left the club a month later without making a first team appearance, and announced that he had joined the Wakefield Trinity Wildcats on a two-year deal until the end of the 2014 season.[7] He made his début for the Wakefield Trinity Wildcats against Hemel Stags in the 2013 Challenge Cup where he scored the opening try of the match. He played four more times that season before spending the remainder of the season on loan at Dewsbury Rams.
In 2015 he played in Sheffield Eagles opening game of the season on loan, before returning to the Wakefield Trinity Wildcats.
At the end of the 2015 season Molloy was selected for the Scotland Training squad for the European Championships.
