He was garbage - now stop talking with your primrose and blue blinkers on.

How the hell can a player who scores 2 tries play garbage?

Take your Wigan glasses off because it that was Sam you would never say that.

1st half he was woeful, 2nd half scored a good try and fell over line for the 2nd - good support play tho. Other than that he was garbage. I'm not saying he was the only 1 but we are talking about Myler

Honestly if you are watching that game and thinking Myler played well you are having a laugh, his two tries were good and well taken, other than that his defencive positioning was all over the place and he made quite a few errors and didn't create much. He was in the team over Tomkins because of organisation, well Tomkins takes hold of a game better than that, Myler was not talking, not getting the line set....

The evaluation of Richie Myler on Sporting Life:

Looked uncertain in the first half but demonstrated his try-scoring potential with two quickfire scores to spark the fightback. 6.

Watch it again he was talking

Did you miss his one on one tackles?

If Tomkins comes in an gets d by the Aussie and Kiwis are you going to be honest an say it?

He played one game were as Myler played a full season..still cant see were Tomkins is more advanced in his career than myler.

I don't think people on here are saying Sam is the answer to us beating the Aussies, far from it. But you must admit he should play after the way BOTH our half backs played last night. Both were poor. Eastmond was far better.

Your point being?

I will be honest if he plays poorly compared to the rest of the team, if they all play shocking then you cannot expect much really, we shall see though, but if you want to compare NZ and Aus to France and judge performances like that, thats fine but I shall not jump to conclusions on Myler or on Tomkins.

Mylers tackling was not bad, this is not the only area of defence though is it, his positioning at times is shocking and disrupts the whole team, he does not get stuck in or have the passion in defence like Tomkins, he onlys tackles when he has to.

I am sure if Tomkins plays next week he will put in a decent performance but him and Myler and McGuire will probably all have shockers as the whole team is poor compared to aus.

he played 1 game against one of the vest teams in NL1 and Myler played NL1?

I said yesterday I expected Tomkins to play last night, if it was me I would stick them both in along with Eastmond at FB take it to them with young fearless hungry lads, playing against players of that level will do them good for the future I wouldn't expect them to beat the Aussies but they would give them problems.

Yes a full season compared to Tomkins one game.
