Penney and all of his assistants have been reappointed despite the Christchurch-based powerhouse having their seven-year title streak snapped in 2024. Chief executive Colin Mainsbridge said a full review had been conducted into the 2024 season in which the Crusaders won only four of 14 matches and finished ninth of 12 teams. Mainsbridge said while the review made more than 50 recommendations, none concerned the coaching personnel and Penney will continue with the full backing of the board, players and back-room staff. “At a high level (the) worst result since 2001 created sleepless nights, no doubt about it,” Mainsbridge told the Stuff website. “But the margins were probably a little finer when you get into the detail and it would be a knee-***** to take out a coach as a result of the system they were dealing with.” Penney was previously sacked by the the Waratahs five games into NSW’s historic winless campaign in 2021.
