I would agree with that Clutch. I think it's a fair assessment. In an ideal world you would want two 25 year old Chris Hicks' on either wing but they dont grow on trees and thats the problem.. there isnt an abundance of talent off quota in this country especially wingers and centres so until that changes, you will see the likes of Riley on the wings.
An intelligent counter argument. Noone knows player salary, but it is safe to assume Riley is amongst the bottom of the 1st choice 17. Players on the lower wages who can perform to a level are as important as the big earners.
I question those stats though. depends on what a clean break is. For me, using my definition there is no way he's made 18 clean breaks.
Penny needs game time to somehow learn some discipline in defence. I'd worry about Riley in defence, but the likes of Wigan, Saints etc will expose Penny. Even though he's probably the best winger in Superleague with a bit of space. Against the best sides, space is at a premium. Shame, as I love watching him.
