Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union. www.squadbuilder.co.uk:1883.jpg



Quote: deeHell "I think last nights performance proves my point beyond conclusion!

Myler before Brough your having a laugh. Brough has played consistently well for Wakey for the last 2 years....Fact! Myler hasn't had one decent game in SL...Fact! Myler was only picked because he signed for Warrington...Fact!

Need I go on........'"


So why was he picked the two previous times? No wonder Blue Chip companies want to be involved in RL, they perceive their fans, quite rightly, as thick s.

What hype? I read the RL trade press, watch the televised games and prior to his selection first time around I had never heard of him. So, again; what hype?

I find it hard to believe you read the RL papers and you had never heard of him prior to international selection! It sounds like your talking garbage just to make your argument have some credibility!

But then again you may be one of them blinkered fans that just reads his own teams match report! icon_lol.gif

So you are implying I am a liar?

I appreciate he game of RL as a whole, unlike most.

What is my argument by the way?

If your not lying your rugby league knowledge must be very limited. I find it hard to believe that anyone that knows anything about the game, could of not heard of Myler before he was first selected for England.

By virtue of me not knowing of Richard Myler equates to me having a very limited knowledge of RL? Fair enough.

So with that one put to bed, what is my argument?

I think it's a season too early for Myler against the Aussies and Kiwis.

He's not played a rugby league game with any intensity in his entire life. I doubt he's played in front of 15,000 people before either. No playoffs, no SL finals, no semi finals, no big league games.

A season at Warrington with the £200,000 worth of expectation on his back should have happened before he was given control of the ship for England.

I agree with that. But I think Smith knows he can get the best of his still quite raw talent out of him. Look at the France game mid-season. Admittingly it wasn't the best French side,but he rose to the occasion ahead of other well established team mates that day.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

And didn't Tomkins do that last night?

I've been lucky enough to watch Tomkins, Eastmond and Myler for over fourt years.

All are very talented players no doubt, but Sam is the better defender and the toughest, something he has had to be because of his size.
Whenever they have played against each other Tomkins has generally come out on top.
