However I would be saying different if we lost the game from that error mind you.
Don't get me wrong; I honestly hope he kicks from here but he is far from the superstar player we thought we were getting. His running style is all wrong though; his body position is far too upright into the collision and thus he is always likely to cough the ball up when an opponent gets their shoulder under the ball.

And on the other hand; he DEFINITELY would have scored with clear field in front of him and definitely wouldn't have been run down for pace and caught by a second rower.
King is 6ft 4 and caught it above his head with some decent pressure on him, not sure Penny would have been able to get it. Just making the point that they have advantages in completely different areas...
One of Kings best games for us today anyway, lets hope he can keep it up and keep improving every week.

It was good enough for Bellamy and Melbourne, that will suffice for me.
Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

Proves to me that Penny was the weak link on that side of the pitch.
How can you say Penny was the weak link???? Anyone with any knowledge of rugby could see that the defence inside the winger has and still is the problem???? The winger is made to look a fool when he is left with 2 or even 3 attackers!!!!
Fair play today though defence was tons better but to say Penny was the weak link is so wrong!!!! He didn't play last week and we conceded 60!!!!!
