Rugby League: Penny's new deal at Warrington
Jul 19 2007 by Ian Laybourn, Liverpool Daily Post
WARRINGTON have handed wing sensation Kevin Penny a new contract that will keep him at the Halliwell Jones Stadium until the end of the 2011 season.
The Wolves have acted quickly to secure the future of the 19-year-old, whose searing pace has drawn comparisons with the great Martin Offiah.
Penny, who did not start playing rugby league until he was 16, scored an eight-minute hat-trick against Salford on Sunday to take his try tally to nine in just six matches.
Warrington coach Paul Cullen said: “He has the pace for all to see and has taken his chance exceptionally well. I am delighted he has committed his future to Warrington.”
The Wolves yesterday released former Hull winger Richie Barnett.
