His crying/breakdancing after Melis 2nd was a highlight for me.

| His first exposure to a semi decent team and Penny is found wanting. He fluffed a not too tough bomb the first time around and then was nowhere to be seen on the second. It's good that he's getting this now so that we can see whether he's any good. Scoring tries is something that every winger can do (Nathan McAvoy excepted), not giving them away is another thing altogether.

| Jesus wept
Hes only been playing rugby league for 2 minutes and already people want him to fail, and are taking much glee when he makes mistakes. Rugby league fans are so narrow minded at times. The same people who laugh at him and want him to fail are no doubt the same people who always moan that the we never beat the aussies.
Lets just give up on him and play a truly $hite winger like Calderwood against the aussies shall we

He needs to be exposed so that we can see that he's not another Calderwood.

Bit of a mis-match don't you think? What must he have been giving away a good couple of stone at least? Hardly a surprise that Meil is going to go through him, bearing in mind he probably still hasn't stopped growing. In fact to have him opposite Meli smacks of poor coaching.
Scoring tries is not something every winger can do otherwise the top try scorers list would consist solely of wingers.
Found wanting? Hardly the first player with a dozen games under there belt to make errors. Look how long it has taken players like Gardner to iron out defencies in his game. Although, people calling for him to be in the next GB/England setup are as pathetic as those wanting to knock him.

| Penny could still turn out to be a "good'un" with the right coaching in the off season.
Sadly as he is at Warrington and Cullen is the coach this seems unlikely to happen

Have you seen our points against? I don't think Penny is the problem.

I've got nothing against the guy and hope he does well, what I am against is the Warrington fans claiming he's the next Offiah and all the hype surrounding what is at the moment a distinctly below average player.

| Penny has pace and balance and the ability to score tries even in the tightest spots, something you either have or you don't, the reason people liken him to offiah. He does seem reasonable in the air (i believe he had a bit of a mare last night under the bomb however) however his one on one tackling is very poor but that is something that can be improved and the lad has only played a handfull of games. Unfortunately for penny, times have changed since offiah's day as (generally) wingers are bigger these days.
He looks like he has the makings of o great 'old fashioned' winger, he'll need to be in a decent side that can protect him to allow him to show off his talents.

| You lot are all jealous!
13 in 12 games says it all.
So what do you want from a winger???
At the moment you have your not too fast but solid, bulked up/good under the high ball type winger (Meli, Tupou etc)
Then theres the speedstars like Penny, White , Gardner etc.
Totally different types of player they all have weaknesses.

How many has he been responsible for letting in, in those games. I made it 4 last night down to Penny?
He has pace and balance, but otherwise is a rag doll at the moment. He needs a lot of coaching to make him a decent player.
Returning the ball he is rubbish as well, due to his lack of size. He was thrown around like a rag doll last night by Saints backs, and was invariably dragged back for negative yards.
In three years time he may be a world beater, but I suspect he will suffer the fate of Richie Barnett, who was found out then binned.
Worryingly for Penny, Warrington is not the place were he will pick up good habits. The coaching regime there is poor, with few youngsters brought on in recent years.

Yeah he should go to saints as they are the only team in the country who can nurture any talent to its full potential
Saints fans are fast becoming the most loathsome fans in the league and have the same attitude as wigan in the 90's.
We decided after watching 2 very poor CC finals over the last couple of years that if saints get there again next year they'll be 10 of us not going.
