| Given I was very vocal in my criticism of Myler, I've been pleased to see him play well in the last couple of weeks, because it gives the opposition another player to worry about, which benefits our other key attackers.
That said, my main criticisms of him (I never, ever stated I didn't think he had ability) was his kicking game (average at best) and his inability to lead the team round the park, direct play and call the shots. Since his return, I've yet to see him take on this mantle, indeed Bridge has come along and shown the way. Myler's good form may well be because the opposition is focussing elsewhere (as they used to with Briers) leaving him more space, and he's taking advantage of it, as he always did.
Still, I'm not interested in raking up old ground on this one. The more attacking players on their game the better from our point-of-view and Myler is part of that equation.
Totally agree with the previous post on Ben Evans - huge fan, and I reiterate my praise of England. He reminds me of Mark Hilton, another keen, full-on, intense, unassuming player who just got on with the job.

No, King was still in the centre. 2009 centres were Bridge and King, with Riley and Hicks on he wing.

| Roy played a much better game than he has previously, I hope he keeps improving because he has't impressed so far. I was delighted to see him throw himself at a loose ball on the floor at one point, that's the kind of attitude you want from your players, enthusiastic and quick to react.
Myler seems to be doing well in our new three-half-back strategy!

| Come on Moe, don't offer comments like that on somebody you obviously didn't see much of. The Beast was a fine player unfortunately hampered by injuries for much of his career, he must have broken his arm at least 3 times battling for the cause in what were some poor sides at times.

Well said.
Mark would have ran through a brick wall for Wires. That was his problem, and the cause of his many injuries, he simply would not drop down a gear.
