st helens today offered salford 250,000 for the transfer of richie myler , salford are said to have turned it down , a friend of mine who works at the willows told me 100% true

Really??.... In what way??

Does he have the ball playing skills and the ability to bring others into the game like a Andy Gregory, or the off-the-cuff skills of a John Woods or Garry Schofield??.... Does he have a kicking game of any note like Kevin Sinfield??

I'd say the answer to those questions is a definite no, which in my view gives him no qualification to be considered as a good half back - Admittedly, he might have some abilities (none of which he is displaying at present), but I just don't see what he has that makes anybody think he can be a half back for any side aspiring to be challenging for trophies.

At the moment, I wouldn't be against sending him somewhere on loan for a month, similar to what they have done with Chris Riley - We sent Gareth O'Brien on loan to Saints last year in order for him to gain first team experience and to develop his game... I suggest Myler requires similar help for his career development because, at the moment, its badly stalled.

Surely in a position with no real playmaker ,the coaching staff should encourage the lads to play basic rugby as a team & see where that gets us. Wigan are lacking in a decent playmaker but Wane has instilled a team ethic into his side & it seems that when young players are drafted into his side they just blend in. Maybe that is a lesson in coaching that would be of benefit at Warrington.

The excuses have run out for Myler, and his undoubted potential has to start showing in consistent, dominant performances THIS YEAR or he should be ushered out of the exit door at the first opportunity, in my opinion.

He has played alongside the best half back of his generation for 5 years
He has played behind one of the toughest most effective and aggressive packs of recent times
He has been coached by one of the best coaches in SL for several years
He has been allowed to develop his game at his own pace and in his own time

Twelve months ago he was the incumbent England half-back. Now, he's a million miles away from it and behind Sinfield, Widdop, Matty Smith, Chase & Lomax on form. His missus has more chance of an England cap than he has.

As for the campaign to move him to hooker, that is a downright insult to Brad Dwyer.

After all the development myler has had over the last 5 years, he should be stepping up to the mark & organising the attacking play. He knows he won't be dropped from the team & so do the other players. unfortunately he hasn't got a rugby brain...Briers did all the thinking for them both, but come Sunday he'll be in the team against Hudd & o'brian will be 18th man or at Swinton.
Now if there was a stat for hi 5s myler would be at the top!
