Wigan have absolutely pap halfbacks (cue angry Wiganers telling me Williams is the next great white hope), even a washed up kiwi would improve them no end.

I think Myler has been good? |

I agree the move seems to have done him the world of good, last thing I'd want to do is replace him with (another) 30 plus overseas player. |

I imagine your boy learnt everything he knows watching Benji. Williams is injured and out for a while. |

Myler is very good when he has an even better stand off next to him...not many better than Carney.

Probably wouldn't be to difficult for Benji to be Man of Steel, as most of the Aussie deadwood like Garbutt etc are usually classed as retired once they come here.
You only have to look at Matty Bowen he was classed as retired and came to one of our elite clubs, same with Gidley lowly Newcastle Knights wern't bothered with his services anymore.

Matty Bowen was a joke in this country though, not MOS, not the best example. |

Bowen only ever seemed to have a good game against us(Leeds) he was great in his last game in the GF but on the whole, i thought he was pretty up and down for the 2 years he spent here |

It was an example of Aussie deadwood whom are classed as retired back home and yet are considered good enough for our elite clubs, a bit like last season with the talk of cuthbertson wearing an England jersey.
As for genuine class you had to go back to 2005 when Saints had Jamie Lyon, now he was man of steel. |

Barrett was class also and should've been man of steel one year. He went back to Oz and played another 2 years for Cronulla plus Origin appearances. |

Greg Bird also. Only played one year in France but an Origin and Test star.

He was great.He carried Catalans to the play off semi in 2009 and he almost single handedly got them to OT with a fine performance against us at Headingley.Im sure Cats were winning at HT too gave us a big scare and we had a top side then too.Shows what a true class act can bring to a club |

Barrett was quality but he was at the end of his career whereas Lyon has had a ten year NRL and rep career after he moved back to Manly.
Greg Bird yes quality but I don't think naughty boys get gongs. |
