TS offloaded Penny (I think) and I can't see him coming back.

Penny has subsequently has a transient career and Kear also got rid.



True - he has fantastic pace but was awful defensively and under the high ball but I don't know why we would resign him.



It all came too quickly for Kev and he had a lot to learn.

As alluded to above by several more realistic posters, comparing Penny to mssrs Robinson and Offiah is not only ridiculous

but disrespectful to two of the games greats.



Robinson was one of his generations greatest rugby players, who was equally at home not only on the wing, but at full back, centre or scrum half.



Offiah was unique. I don't think that I have ever seen a player more hungry for the ball in order to score a try. His reading of the game was exceptional, and this coupled with his speed meant he was as likely to finish off a move in the right hand corner as he was on his own left wing.



Comparing Penny to these two greats is simply pathetic.

Not at all

We need some pace in our side urgently. I doubt we have anyone who could go 60 yards without being caught.

Myler

Is there any truth in this? I've been away and don't want to trawl through the pages. Thanks

Yes. He is a wire playing at Swinton.

No offence Rubber Duckie but you've come up with one pearlers on here. Has this been announced by the club? That's when it's official.

You never asked was it official, you asked was there any truth because you couldn't be bothered to read the thread. Doh!

Thanks for saving me reading through this non starter topic.

Kevin HAS signed with the club. This is fact. He has been given strict guidelines to follow to get himself into the right shape for the season, gaining weight and muscle mass the top priority.

It will be interesting to see. My only thoughts re too much weight & muscle mass will definitely slow him down.

If its true it would be interesting to see if he can displace one of the wingers. He could even play at fullback com to think of it.
