If we get beat by Leeds, and especially if Hudds beat Wigan tonight too, then I do not see the point in Myler or Bridge playing another game for us.

Bridge wont play again !

Bridge will be back in a few weeks.

Briers & Myler
Carney & Myler
Brough & Myler
Sinfield & Myler
Brown & Myler
Walsh & Myler
Sandow & Myler

...would all be class halfback parings.

Myler has unfortunately fallen victim to having to be the leading creative player in our team, when that's not his game. I've lost count of the number of times on here you hear his support play or defense being lauded. He's the perfect foil to an off-the-cuff creative player. I really rate him, he's a lynch pin of our team IMO, and our form has been better this season since he come back from injury. That final season partnering Briers in 2013, he was on fire, a shoe-in for a starting World Cup place, and possibly our best player until he hurt his knee in August.

He's our drummer, setting our rhythm, and keeping things ticking over, occasionally chipping in with an amazing solo. He's one of the best drummers out there. We've just been missing a lead guitarist for the past few seasons, and expected our drummer to fill his shoes, rather than recruiting a proper replacement.

Nice analogy Jimathay.

How long is Myler's contract with Catalans ? I just can't imagine him settling in France and having to speak French(a demand of the coach). He's a relatively young man and we could see his return to the HJ in a couple of seasons when the coaching staff will likely have changed who can see his true position as a fine support player and not as a Briers replacement.

That should be the other way around, we need a rhythm section, myler is the lead guitarist

I would say myler is more the drummer and Sandow the lead guitarist although the person leading the pulse will switch every now and again eg in a guitar solo. Also the hooker/acting hb will contribute to the pulse as perhaps an auxiliary drummer.

That's why its a team sport

whoah, lets not go overboard. Myler is a decent player, a good support player and a good defender, but he's nothing more than that. He hasn't progressed as a player or added anything to his game since he signed from Salford IMO. So many anonymous games, more of those than not.

I stand to be corrected, but in MHO all that was needed was for Richie to spend a shed load of time with Briersy and borrow his kicking boots. Sorry to see Myler go, I think we will miss him.

Myler is a good player but far from being a great player as a No 7 . He would be more suited as 9 as he needs to be less off the cuff at 9 and can still back up and follow play. But we have better 9's so lets ship him out.
Smith rates O'Brien as a better player with Sandow than Myler hence the reason he will be still here next year.
