I love that.
And i think every Wire fan would be happy you got the nod from TS.

Unlike the score from kick off v Hull a couple of years ago where he passed inside to Matt King?

I'm sure the posters on the Virtual Terrace will have the scoop before anyone else. After all, they do know how much each Warrington player is being paid......

| The problem for Kev for me is that all the qualities he had that made him shine, we now have anyway, as they are a given under Smith. I used to love his enthusiasm, his desire, his passion, his pace. Without all that, you're just left with deficiencies.
At Wakefield, he'll be a breath of fresh air. Their fans will adore him, he'll chase everything, catch tonnes, miss some, clap, beat his chest, run very, very fast. He's all action, good & bad and it'll be great for Kear to stand back and say to the rest of them "look, this is what I want", he might not do everything right, but he'll do everything with everything he's got.
It makes Wakefield watchable again on TV anyhow, thank god.
It's upto Kev to shine now, and shine like a beacon. I hope he proves everyone wrong, like an Atkins who now makes Bradford's decision to let him go look ridiculous. There's plenty kicking around in SL, look at Jodie Broughton, not good enough for Leeds, he's made a good career move for him and his stock has risen, Penny should look at the likes of him and see that you can bounce back.

| Imagine if penny had played last week and made the attempted tackle that riley did that led to Hull's first try. There would have been a 6 page thread saying how crap he is at tackling. I believe the only reason smith isn't persevering with him is the salary he is probably on.

did you ever look at Tom Briscoes try on Friday just gone and See Riley rush out and go high on Briscoe and get brushed off Easily resulting in Briscoe scoring in the corner...and think anything ?????
or have we all moved on from picking out wingers defensive errors now John Clarkes back in the side.....

No he's just not Smiths type of player he could of played a few times this season but he played Rhys Williams instead also Rhys was given a new contract this season.

I thought it was a good finish.
Where have i ever been on the JC bashing brigade ?
All Penny offers is in attack and all he offers is blistering pace. I've seen Riley being creative a hell of a lot more than KP, besides i'm not a KP basher either i want him to stay, all i'm saying is given the choice between havilg Riles and KP i'd pick Riles

ahh you beat me to it but thank you....
the Salary is almost certainly exactly the main reason. (Maybe Penny did turn into a bit of a Johnny Big Time I dont know, I dont know the lad but I didnt get to hear any rumours to back that up)
But If it means Smith can sign Hodgson And the lad from the reserves Rhys Williams for the equivalent of Pennys Salary then its a no brainer for a coach, two for one thank you very much.

Yes, but it was pretty clear that penny would be moving on and that williams would be here for the next couple of seasons at least. Therefore i would imagine smith saw the benefit of giving williams some 1st team experience. Nobody will convince me that his salary is not a factor in his moving on. Also, didn't smith pick him in a GB training squad?
