| I'm all for bringing youth through but with stand off & the type of player Myler is, I believe it vitally important to have an experienced number 6 for a few years before the likes of Goulding Jr & O'Brien are given a chance. Eastmond has Pryce alongside him at Saints (although Eastmond is such a good player he could play alongside me & still dominate games), and Tomkins has Leulai at Wigan.
If one of the fantasy signings of Eastmond/Pryce not available I can see Wire bringing an experienced NRL player over for 2012/2013 to continue Myler's development and complement his style as a support player not a game controller.

I couldn't agree anymore if you paid me to.

He's used to play Fullback, he's 26 so cover for fullback too.
I couldn't see him costing as much as say Brown or Dobson if he was contracted.
Won't happen though, just us arrogant Wire fans thinking we can but anyone at will

| Briers again proved today that the players mentioned on this thread aren't fit to clean his boots. It was like he was playing inside some sort of untouchable bubble.

Agreed. Bridge might have got MOM on BBC but Briers was very very special today.

| Browns a class half but today was poor. I think he wants to go to the NRL.
Bosc or Dobson would do, the latter's brilliant, still a kid and a nice guy to boot.

Ageed. The only reason Kier gave it to Bridge was because he scored 5 tries

| Is there any need to still discuss this with him singing an extra year?
Even when his contract runs out i think that he will be offered a non-playing contratc at the club. He can then teach the likes of caslick and o'brein how to play the game the Briers way. That is what we need to be doing IMO. Maybe one or twice a week having them 3 slope off at trainging and do something that is more specific to thier positions. Hodgson was not only brought in to replace Mathers, but to teach a young Jordon Burke how to play full back and how to kick goals, but having watched the 20's at Wilderspool we now do not need a gol kicker. O'brein is quality at kicking. He could even give Hodgson a run or his money IMO.

Brett was at the Under 20s game last night seeing what he could learn off Gaz in the kicking department!!!

| For me last night has confirmed that in future when we are a half-back missing we shouldn't mess the team around to accommodate, we should bring a straight like-for-like replacement into the team in Gaz O'Brien.
I can appreciate the logic that Huddersfield away is not the palce to give a youngster a debut but having seen a lot of O'Brien over the last three years I cannot believe that we would have been any worse off. At the very least we would have had a long kicking game to play off the back of.
O'Brien is one that I believe can be Briers' long term replacement and I also believe it's time he can be trusted to perform for the first team when we are a half-back short.
