Should be a great crowd...Oh wait. -4 you say.

Yep, every team certainly in our division would miss Penky in their side.
However life after Penky will go on.

The team will have to focus more on playing as a unit with less reliance on any inviduals brilliance.

In the long run this should work out for the better.

The key is can we get the key pivot players like 6,7,9 and 13 organizing and steering us around the pitch.

If they do click we will have a very strong side, if not we will be missfiring in a good few games and get the same mixed results we have been watching.

I think we will get there.

Eagles next up could not be better to see what we do when points and getting off to a good start are up for grabs and will be a cracking game to find out.

He will win them in the first 75 minutes.

In all seriousness though they are totally different players but its clear to see even from what we have seen of him so far that Murrell will be an excellent signing for us if he can keep fit.

If Murrell does play at 13, Tiger & Thacks at h/back or even Murrell at 6 if required, I imagine that we'll be a lot more structured with the ball than those spells over recent seasons when Penky has "done his thing". I wouldn't ever wish to swap the "Penky years", he's been awesome for us & I expect the same from him when he plays for Leigh but I just feel we'll be more organised & will get to the kick/play our sets out more consistently from now onwards and our playmakers will be more effective getting us around the field and attacking the area's in the opposition's defences where our coaches think we can benefit. It will be interesting how many penalties we can draw out of Penky when we play against him. And just for the record, I believe Ben Kaye & Andy Ellis combo at Fev in that position makes them stronger than previously, I expect them to try and do sides in & around the A, B, C defence.
