Penky is a huge mate of Rowley's too, but is it a good thing that a player is a 'good mate' of the coach?
Not sure, I bet a lot of us have at some point had to work for our friends and at times it isn't easy and relationships become strained. One thing possibly in Fax's favour is that Penky knows what it's like playing for Matt Calland and re-signed last year knowing that Calland would be in charge. Could argue though that one thing in Leighs favour is that a change is as good as a rest and he may fancy playing his rugby somewhere else! Time will tell!
