That did cross my mind when I posted my earlier comment! One Warrington supporter at that Academy game reckoned that if Penny had been in the St Helens Academy he'd have been in their first team months ago. I was also told that Logan Swann, having returned Down Under, claimed there was a "drinking culture" at Warrington, to which Cullen responed "If he thinks that's a drinking culture he should have played in my day!". (In other words, there is a drinking culture at Warrington.)

Yes of course that's what it means.

This guy is the real deal, outstanding again today.

He wasn't that good - two scratchy tries against a beaten side and he didn't really do anything else. Took the first one well mind.

"scratchy tries" ha ha ha. Typical Penny for the first, he got the ball outside his opposite man, went past him and then put his nose down, headed for the corner and skinned the covering fullback on the outside.
Not sure what more Penny could have done really to make it not a "scratchy try"....
He's got a long way to go but 2 tries in the game - when he apparently didn't even play well - is continuing to bode well for the lad.

Did you watch the game on the radio? The first try was a great finish.

Don't say that, he is the greatest winger of all time!.


TBH it's happened with Leeds, Ryan Hall is now the new Lote Tuqiri.


People should just let these players develop without far fetched expectations.

Hence the comment 'took the first one well'.

The boy Penny is starting to make a habit of it now though.

5 in 4 games.

It's actually 6 in 5.

Don't get me wrong, he looks a real talent, but after the game against us a lot of our fans were ready to ditch our wingers for an untested raw talent.


Its a shame they didn't think the same when Mark Calderwood played for us.
