Saw Mr Penny in Tesco yesterday!

And what did he have to say for himself?

Don't know, but he's a must for the Northern Union.

Nothing but he looked quite angry! Like this..

Currently in Hull's Under 21's and scored on his debut in the win against saints, looks a classy player by all accounts!

Pretty quiet today, made a couple of errors.

Hull played Raynor aganist him and he kept him quiet and scored a couple of trys himself.

Raynor had to make up for a shocking error for Warringtons 3rd try.

Can't wait to see him lining up outside King, Anderson and Monaghan. By all accounts he was quiet today but by the sounds of it our pack was dominated.

I fear that he was neglected by some players who were more considerate of their own grubby little reputations than with exploiting the advantage of the Super League's fastest winger being outside them.

When did Darren Albert make a return?

Raynor outplayed him with ball in hand. He never really got a look in.

Was closed down well when he returned kicks also. Didnt think that much to him at all, didnt look anything but average. However, I think this must have just been a bad game for him, its not like players play good games every match

or could it be that now the cat is out of the bag, he will get far less space than he's hgad in the last few weeks. Talent he's got, but greatness, he'll have to earn.

The thing I noticed if we are talking a head to head against Raynor was how much extra work Raynor went looking for. I cant really remember Penny looking to run from dummy half in the centre of the field..

I wouldn't want a winger as young/light as Penny taking many hits down the middle.

He did more than you're giving him credit for. He took high shots/digs early on in the game from you thugs . And with your players marking him it with giving other players the chance to break.

thugs??

14 penalties and a sending off from wire suggest the opposite!!

All around the chest the tackles he took because if people like kingy and carvell go head hunting against people as slight as him he wouldnt have been getting up!

I'll ignore the first part, as you are simply a sore loser with primrose and blue blinkers on.

He was marked, yes. He has developed a small reputation as being a player that, given space, will exploit it. We did what a good rugby team does and didn't give him space. Wire didn't make many breaks all game.

couldnt keep him away.

Correct.

Age means nothing. If you're good enough, you're old enough.

If he's not gonna do the work, he's not that good a player (yet).

To be fair, Raynors work ethic has come from a greater number of years experiance (and also playing outside Yeaman therefore he has to go looking for the ball as he rarely gets a pass from him

)

Penny never really got into the game yesterday which was credit to Hulls defence and closing down from kicks. It was clear Penny has good pace from his retreats to collect the long kicks. This does however display a degree of poor positional play. Experiance will improve this.

I would like to see him in a foot race with Paul White from Wakefield as I personally think he is the fasted I have seem in SL for many years. The major down side with White (and Penny on a number of occasions yesterday) was ball retention. They might be fast but they are not the next Offiah yet. More like a modern day Brimah Kebbie (Sp).

A number??? One!

There was one return in the second half when he took a real battering from King, got up, was hit by another of the big forwards, got up again, then was finally clattered. Not bad for somebody who was shirking work.

It is getting tiresome that whenever Penny plays now, we have the fans of the opposite team criticising him because he is not some sort of amalgam of Dally Messenger, Brian Bevan, Ellery Hanley, Gorden Tallis and Mal Meninga. He's Kevin Penny - a young, exciting, inexperienced winger who is learning fast in the most maddeningly inconsistent rugby league team in the country. He'll have good days; he'll have bad days. In a couple of years, we'll know whether the fuss was justified.

An often quoted maxim.

Still utter bollox, though.
