[quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

Having seen the game last night my opinion on Kevin Penny hasn't changed in the slightest he is still all hype for me.

IMO he's more of an athlete than a rugby league player.
He doesn't have particulary good passing, catching or tackling skills but his speed and athleticism get him noticed.
Obviously he will improve as he gets more experience but at the moment I think he is very over rated.

When did that happen? Gardner went for the corner and penny couldn't get there in time. He hardly ran over him.

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

I love it when you post. You highlight the crisis in the education system in Wigan.

While most opposition fans criticise Penny they would like to have him in their team.
He has got pace to burn and plenty of time to learn the game ( Chambers is too old)
So ok his head on tackling technique is never going to be very good, with his pace he can usually let some one pass and then tackle from behind or along side.
When Saints had Anthony Sullivan a few years ago he wasn't renowned for his defence but he scored some classic tries

[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: SAINTS57 "While most opposition fans criticise Penny they would like to have him in their team.'" Definitely not, I would hate to see Penny in a Huddersfield Giants shirt!
His one attribute is his finishing ability. Which he showed well last night. He is not a big, fast but poor with his hands 'athlete'-type winger as many people seem to think. His catching skills rarely let him down. He is just not big or strong enough and is very poor at reading the game both in attack and defence. |

His finishing was top notch last night, brave too at times.
He also likes a cuddle, even when his team mates dont want one he jumps them and gives them a nice big smiley cuddle.

the third try was world class IMO. his step and pace when he gets into space are unstoppable.
The first 2 needed scoring too; although he was helped by Flannery vanishing both times leaving Gardner marking both King and Penny.

[quote="dave m":36nw6ut6]Briscoe couldn't get into Wigans Team because of Radlinski even though Radlinski was playing crap at the time still better than old bent nose.[/quote:36nw6ut6]
[quote="redtillimdead":36nw6ut6]Oh and as for Briscoe,if he was that fab,why did Wigan see fit to let him leave?[/quote:36nw6ut6]:8903.gif |

If he's given the ball in that type of situation he'll score. |
