| This time last year this board was full of Myler for GB and he was the best thing since sliced bread.

| Not from me Chester.
I've always thought he was not the right buy.
At the time Leneghan took over at Wigan it seemed a mini transfer fee revival was on between them and us.
Perhaps it was a knee jerk reaction on the part of Moran.
If he doesn't make a transition, like one or two say he should, to hooker, then I don't think we'll be extending his contract.
I'm very sure he can run from dummy half to great effectiveness but....
I cannot for one minute see him beefing up enough to bring down props running at him over and over.

| I think he's a good halfback, I think he needs dropping purely as a wake up call, if he doesn't get dropped you're effectively saying 'you're doing nothing wrong carry on as you are'.
He's been dropped before and it had a good affect on him, seems time is good for helping you forget certain lessons.

| Didn't we give Lee Briers 10 yrs and a testimonial before he finally developed to give a consistent all round performance ?

| Good point shinymc.
Let's extended his contact till the next decade then threaten that he'll be released to the championship on the 7th season.
That ought to get a reaction?!

| .. the only downside being that we'll have to carry him for another 4 seasons why he puts in one excellent game followed by 6 more being poor to ok.

| I seem to remember monies being used in transfers.
Be it large ones or small ones as an incentive to release players just a few weeks early, even though the player could go as a free agent at season end

| Quote Wire Yed="Wire Yed"I think he's a good halfback,'"
Really??.... In what way??
Does he have the ball playing skills and the ability to bring others into the game like a Andy Gregory, or the off-the-cuff skills of a John Woods or Garry Schofield??.... Does he have a kicking game of any note like Kevin Sinfield??
I'd say the answer to those questions is a definite no, which in my view gives him no qualification to be considered as a good half back - Admittedly, he might have some abilities (none of which he is displaying at present), but I just don't see what he has that makes anybody think he can be a half back for any side aspiring to be challenging for trophies.
At the moment, I wouldn't be against sending him somewhere on loan for a month, similar to what they have done with Chris Riley - We sent Gareth O'Brien on loan to Saints last year in order for him to gain first team experience and to develop his game... I suggest Myler requires similar help for his career development because, at the moment, its badly stalled.

| Surely in a position with no real playmaker ,the coaching staff should encourage the lads to play basic rugby as a team & see where that gets us. Wigan are lacking in a decent playmaker but Wane has instilled a team ethic into his side & it seems that when young players are drafted into his side they just blend in. Maybe that is a lesson in coaching that would be of benefit at Warrington.
