i have not read trough all the posts but i truly do think he will be a one season wonder, hope I'm wrong but its what i really do believe.

Naturally, we've had people insisting he is one game/three game/five game wonder for a while now, the fact of the matter is he has now played 9 top flight game and scored 10 tries.

Its typical of the small minded, chip on shoulder average rugby league fan, that when a player with the raw talent of Penny arrives on the scene, all they can do is put him down

the few times i ve seen him he has impressed me with his confidence to take a player on the outside.
ok he;s a long way off the finished article yet but he's only a young lad with fantastic speed i for one would love to see him make it to the very top. with speed like his on the wing it can only be good for the team he plays for

kev doesnæt have any acne at all unlike richie whoæs still struggling with it at 30

So did Richie Barnett, doesnt mean hes any good though.

I thought he did OK. When hulls forwards were on a roll, Penny's team mates lost all interest, im not sure what people were expecting him to do. Score ten maybe? Give the kid a break. He made mistakes, people do. Look at raynor, responsible for two wire tries, and hes the current GB number 1. I can remember Yeaman being taught a lesson by Gleeson when he was at saints, mybe this game will do the same for penny.

If I was offered him by warrington, Id bite their hand off. The guys got enormous potential. It just needs nurturing!

If both Raynor and Penny came onto the market now for the same amount of money I'd go for Penny. Raynor is coming to the final years of a very average career whereas Penny is just starting a career that may not even be average but I'd be prepared to take that risk instead of taking a solid Raynor for the next three years or so.

If winning and scoring in a chalenge cup final, playing in a superleague grand final and scoring the winning try against the aussies is your idea of an average career, then most superleague players may as well give up now. Id class that as a pretty good career.

Darren Ferguson won a premiership winners medal whilst at United.

True. However the same applies in the opposite direction.

It is typical of certain fans from certain clubs along with certain members of the UK media to bull certain players up well before they have done enough to deserve it. At the moment he has done nowhere near enough.

I have no opinion on Penny other than he clearly has pace and is very sensitive to the colour of his skin. As someone else has eluded it's best to wait a while to see if the fuss is justified. I suspect it isn't but we shall see.

Ricky Bibey has won two Challenge Cup medals.

Kevin Penny "The next Martin Offiah"
Looking good versus Les Catalan Dragons Two Knock Ons and a Bombed Try Inside 15 Minutes.
