- Biography:
Big Ken made huge strides in every sense across the 2017, 2018 and 2019 seasons as he established himself on the left wing.
After making his NRL debut in 2015, he went on to make just 18 appearances with only two tries in his first two seasons.
The next three campaigns, though, marked an upward curve as he featured in 23 games each season missing just four games. There was a huge improvement in his strike rate as he scored 29 tries in this 69 games, including 17 in 2019 when he was named the Dally M winger of the year. He also made his mark as one of the best metre gaining wingers in the competition, averaging 156 metres a game in 2017, 154 in 2018 and 190 in 2019.
The period of growth coincided with Maumalo making his mark at international level when he switched from Samoa to represent the Kiwis, making his debut against England in Denver in 2018.
His 2020 NRL season was truncated when he joined a group of players who returned home to be with their families during the Covid pandemic.
While restricted to eight games he added another five tries and delivered more outstanding ball running deeds with 282 metres in the win against the Dragons and 291 when the Vodafone Warriors beat the Broncos.
