Whats that got do with anything? Maybe he's in a team who can create more chances than most.

More then Saints'Leeds and Bradford? Believe it or not he rarely get's the ball either.

Very valid point I have to say - in Henry he has possibly the worst passer of a Rugby ball in current SL linking up with him - not to mention the fact that Warrington are a notoriously right sided team - his true potential won`t emerge till next year I suspect ...

I find it amazing that fans are so quick to bag him. He is a talent, and has the potential to be up there with the best.

The reason people are so excited is because the turn of pace he shows to score his tries is incredible, against decent teams too in Leeds, Saints and Wigan.

He is nowhere near the finished article, he has played less than a dozen first grade games, but he is already doing great things.

His defence now is much better than in the first game he played, so it looks like he is a quick learner too...

Penny looks and excellent prospect IMO.

Look to have that 'x factor' about him.

Should smith take a gamble on him against the kiwis?

No.

Given the dearth of wing options for GB I don't see why not. If he's good enough, he's old enough. But I've not seen enough of him to know if he is good enough

Well the aussies never waste any time giving youngsters the chance if they look to have the talent.

Smith likes fast backs, with lots of offloads and broken play, Penny would fit right in.

Gamble worth taking IMO.

With one eye on the world cup next year i hope Smith does give him a chance against the Kiwis

What's he like under a kick, and what's his positional defence like?

Competent i would think.

Watching tries scored against wire i haven't really noticed penny being at fault.

Besides, who cares?

Would rather have a player with penny's pace and finishing ability then someone who could catch kicks most of the time.
