How poor are george and penny, they are both good for one thing an interception pass and running the length of the field once a blue moon. Penny contstanly comes off his wing in defence and leaves a massive gap. We miss Blanch!!!

anyway on a positive note her majestys mail service has just delivered the first batch of the official SBK tan accelarator!!!

Where's Greg Johnson 10x better than penny.

Was in the 19 but not selected same as last week against Quins

Thought he played last night in the reserves but i may be wrong.

Penny does try he's just not very good and i would not pick him.

Im not saying penny doesnt try.. he clearly does,, however he's not a RL player

What exactly did George do wrong, I've watched the game twice now and I can't see it. Leave him at centre why should Murphy walk straight in. This is becoming silly now, just because he showed some loyalty does not make him a messiah, he's been OK this season but no better than the rest - we are mixing sentiment with ability here and getting the sums wrong IMO. There will be someone on calling Murphy a legend next.

Agreed. I thought George did ok last night and better than most.

johnson did play in the reserves and played well. can't see why he is not playing first team. prefer him to most of the others strong in defence and willing to work. as for george . thought he did nothing wrong at all. been one of the lads biggest critics but this season he seems to have stepped up to the plate.

Maybe Johnson was taken out of the public glare with news just breaking of him being charged for the assault. If his heads right over the coming weeks he should get another chance as Penny has done nothing to justify inclusion ahead of him.

Don't think Penny did much wrong. He had come in off his wing for their first try, but he had no choice, because it was him against three. Same with the intercept he went for. It was either interception or try, because it was three on one. I think he blew the run-out from behind the line, because there was a huge gap, and he went to go round Wellens rather than just getting onto the field, but I wonder if that would have involved stepping off his weaker foot, because he wasn't facing forward. He fancied stepping around one of the best full backs in the game and got caught.

We missed a bit of oomph up front, that's all. King isn't back to last year's impact, and we were missing Korki and Morrisson.

I have to say I think that George has played better in the centre than he does on the wing, Penny is enthusiastic running about all over the place the problem is he is never where he should be when the opposition get the ball and pass out to the wing, hes also no good at catching the high ball in fact hes not that good at catching the ball.

The problem is that he is not a rugby league player! Times have changed since he broke onto the seen in 2006/2007, SL is at a far better standard with far better players playing the game.

Unfortunately for Penny, the above point has exposed his weaknesses. I know he is keen to do work, and runs about like a blue d flee, but this only reminds me of kids who play the game at u8s level...he doesn't have the fundamentals in place to play to the required standard in SL and in my opinion should be left in the reserves until his contract expires when Johnson returns.

The game as changed and a lot of it is not for the better. In the good old days wingers were there to score tries end off
If Andy Fech played in this era he would be rubbish if Brian Juliff did he would be a god
We have 3 wingers who with ball in hand are match winners in defence and under the high ball all 3 are as poor and need to improve
