now come on I know 5 and a half inches is not what you would expect from the old fashioned stereotype but he can certainly do the business with it from what ive heard |

[quote="King Street Cat":1wa9s43t]Some might look at this as being harsh but I think it's fair. When are the Rugby League going to stop persisting with this fantasy expansion. If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.[/quote:1wa9s43t]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6731.jpg |

| Quote: getdownmonkeyman "Found wanting? Hardly the first player with a dozen games under there belt to make errors. '"
I know that. I've not condemned him to be rubbish forever.
Quote: getdownmonkeyman "so he hasn't played leeds, and he didn't play saints in the cup and do a decent job?'"
He did but this is the first time that Saints have played towards him and he looked creaky to say the least.
Quote: getdownmonkeyman "Yeah he should go to saints as they are the only team in the country who can nurture any talent to its full potential ![]()
That's not what he said. He said that Cullen isn't good enough as a coach to bring him through to any sort of high standard and I would reckon that there'd be a few Wire fans that would agree with that.
It's not about him joining Saints it's about him getting good coaching.

26 pages of utter tripe.
No matter who you are, if he was at your club, you wouldn't be able to get your c-ock out fast enough.
He was at fault for 4 tries on Friday, deary me, no he wasn't that's just a lie.

Penny was at fault for all of them, it was his fault Joe Lydon dropped that goal at Maine Road as well. At leas he didn't make 6 errors this week. |

hang about evil homo, i think you'll find that most of the ott hype came from matches that were televised against saints and leeds when wire fans were at the games, only to return to find several threads banging on about how good he was.
We're proud of him and his potential but don't get believe you're own bull, aside from the wire forum, we haven't said a lot(apart from mark on the salford board) |

| Quote: aitch "Neither I or the Chair Maker who have both been critical of Cullen's coaching ability here have never said that only at Saints would he do well in fact I was chatting to a Warrington fan after the match on Friday who said very much the same thing.
Think you are showing your Anti Saints bias here as does the comment about not going to the Challenge Cup Final again if Saints are there
Two things to say about this 1) Good it will mean more tickets available for true RL Fans (or even for Saints fans ![]()
1. I like Cullen as a a coach and what he has put in place over the last 5 years. i do have some doubts whether he can get the best out of true quality players or command the respect of these players. Next season will be the real test.
2. Far too many Saints fans are believing the hype way too much, even though I'll concede you are currently in a class of your own.
3. As for Wembley......... 1 sided games in a poor atmosphere hold no appeal. Twickenham was awful and Wembley was great for the occasion but its not a patch on the atmosphere and general feeling that is generated at Cardiff. However, if Warrington get there I'll go  I got fed up of watching wiggin constantly winning at Wembley and am feeling the same way about Saints.

[quote="dally messenger":1gysl9ow]was watching an nfl doco. on one of their teams and they used the term bomb to describe those long high passes from quaterback to running back and i think gibson took that idea, realized you cant throw the ball forward in RL and adapted it to a "bomb" kick we have[/quote:1gysl9ow]

In reply to the ORIGINAL question of this thread and after just watching the "skypodthingy".... He was pants.
Young player of the year my ar5e, but most definitely one of THE finds of the season.

Kevin Penny has been selected for the GB train on squad (as well as his inclusion in the SuperLeague dream team).
Clearly, his 100% try scoring record is still viewed as useful in some quarters.

How sad is this thread! It actually looks like you want this kid to fail just so you can say "told you so"
We've got a player here who seems to haver all the natural talent a winger needs: amazing speed, balance and most of all he backs himself nearly all the time. The rest of his game can and will be worked on in the future. I don't know any wingers for GB who are much better! (that's not saying how highly I think of Penny, just how e the others are!)

I`ve seen all the games Penny has played in and I`ll describe him as a raw real deal. At the moment he needs a centre glued to him because in attack he`s easily dragged towards the touchline and in defence he doesn`t seem able to tackle a big forward on his own. But, with a bit more meat on him and this season behind him who can`t see that meanness growing in him. He will get better year after year. And we can afford to wait with him being so young. Top try scorer next year, which will warrant his contract

Looks promising and has scored a few good tries but to have him in the SL dream team in a bit much. I can see why GB would have him in the train on squad for a bit of experience but he has a long way to go just yet and could easily end up being nothing more than potential.
