James Maloney
Moves West! James Maloney has moved to Penrith and so far, he’s enjoying the quieter lifestyle. He loves his golf, telling us that he’s already hit the golf course with some of the Panther players. After moving from Orange to the Central Coast as a nine-year-old, James Maloney is no stranger to the drastic lifestyle changes that he and his family have faced throughout his rugby league career. It’s been a journey that has taken him, across the Tasman and back to Sydney, culminating in his arrival at the heart of the city’s west. Whilst some may struggle with the pressures of juggling the career of a professional athlete and being a parent, Maloney credits the constant change for bringing him and his wife Jess closer together.
“I don’t mind that it’s a little quieter and away from the hustle and bustle. It’s something that we’re looking forward to. I enjoy my golf. I went out for a hit with the boys. There’s quite a few handy golfers in the team” And whilst a third Premiership ring remains his main goal after the move to Penrith, his winning pedigree is already making an impact on a different green playing surface to the one he’ll run out on at Panthers Stadium.
“We got together just before I went down to Melbourne and she fell pregnant with (eldest) Kade down there. The opportunity at the Warriors came up and she was happy to go and support me in that.” “It was a big move having our first kid and going to another country away from family and friends… but it was good in that it made us stronger. We didn’t have help and we had to do everything on our own. We leant on each other.” Maloney admits the constant change has more of an effect on his wife than it does on him. “The beauty with footy is you come in and meet 30-odd blokes you become really good friends. It’s a little harder for Jess. She has to move away from friends and make new friends, which takes a little bit more time.” After spending much of his life on the beachside, Maloney is excited to embrace the change of scenery that presents itself in Penrith.

Meet our new General Manager Steve Ginty joins the Panthers Wallacia team as the new General Manager. Steve takes over from Kathy Borich who has returned to Panthers Glenbrook. Have you met our new General Manager Steve Ginty yet? If not, pop into the club and say Hi. Steve brings a wealth of experience to Wallacia. Steve Ginty most recently owned and operated Glasgow Arms Hotel in Sydney’s inner west, Ultimo, until he sold it mid last year. He has been a career publican, beginning life in pubs as a barman at the Woolwich Pier Hotel. Emanating from Coonamble, around 500 km north-west of Sydney, he first operated the (former) Tattersalls Hotel, then Dubbo’s Western Star, before he and wife Susan moved to the capital to reinvent Petersham’s White Cockatoo. He also took on the Headlands Hotel in Austinmer, around 70 km south, before settling back in Sydney at the Place Hotel, Mortlake, and finally Ultimo’s Glasgow Arms. Steve has already started making his mark on our club. He has introduced some exciting new promotions and improvements. Come into the club and check them out.
