Then you will also remember I was sceptical about the source of that info.

####ing 'ell

and I thought that 5h1te Ted Rodgers used to present, 30 odd years ago was long winded and ended up getting nowhere......page 14 and counting

can we put this in Dusty Bin?

Myler's main problem is that he's tried to a number 1 playmaker, he was more Maguire than Briers, should have stayed that way. I think he has gotten a lot better defensively, I think he'd be an amazing hooker.

Well it looks like Myler is here for another year, and if he wants to be around longer he better have a fantastic 2015. He needs to improve hugely with his kicking game and significantly with his general play or GOB will have officially replaced him and he can be ushered to the door labelled "unfulfilled potential".

For me, the only significant disappointments of this year were the CC semi and the continued enigma that is Richie Myler.

A lot of players, including Richie, are needing to have a big year next year to earn their place. Great for the future.

I agree Vespid one of the positives from this/last year is that it sets us up for next year as a year potentially beyond potential for quite a few players. As well as the perennial potential of Myler, also this applies to both Evans', O'Brien, Laithwaite, England, Russell.

Can't wait for a good off season and the next campaign

I think Laithwaite is going the right way.
He'll definately be a knights player next season, if he was at Wigan, he may well had been on the plane to Aus.

Sims, Wheeler & Clark will be looking to make a good impression too.

Asotasi, Grix, Westwood etc will want to make up for last season for different reasons, injury, poor form etc.

All very positive, we have a surplus amount of players and they'll all want to make the 17.

Myler rumour resurfaced. Not beyond the realms of possibility is my understanding and situation remains fluid. RM wants regular first team action and has a better chance at HKR. We shall wait and see I think.

Which scrum half at Warrington will be displacing Myler?

Declan Patton. Recentltly signed a 2yr deal, and now no longer eligible for the U19's. Probably more likely that he will be sent out on D/R, but he is hovering in the wings, and unlike Myler he has a strong kicking game.

Which one is it? Dual reg or displacing Myler; it can't be both.

You asked which SH will be displacing Myler. I am saying Patton is a good candidate but that I think this coming year it is more likely that he will be gaining experience at other clubs.

What a load of rubbish. The rumour has re-surfaced because you've just done it. With 13 new players and an untested coach, no-one in their right mind would want to go to HKR. They've signed 2 new halfbacks alreay. 15 pages of absolute drivel that hasn't got anywhere.

So, Patton isn't displacing Myler this season. I will ask again; which scrum half is displacing Myler?

Have a good look at your own post, you asked who would displace Myler, not who would displace him this coming season.

Which means that Myler will be going on loan to HKR in 2016?

Clark could play at halfback, lots of hookers have done it, what about Ratchford 6, Clark 7, Higham 9?

I like you SC.
You always manage keep me guessing whether to take you seriously or not.

Anyways I'm kind of happy Tees that this thread has resurfaced, not that I actually believe it, but the topics have been very dull the last couple of weeks, and nothing sparks a debate better than a rumour.

If he goes to HKR in 2016 he will not need to go on loan - his contract expires in 2015.

So, in the current situation, he can only be displaced this season.

Your original post asked " who will displace Myler". Not 'this year' or 'in the current climate'. If Patton continues to develop whilst Myler fails to fulfil his potential, then I think he could be our SH. He doesn't have the powerful running of Myler, but he does have all aspects of the kicking game. It is almost certain Patton will play in the pre-season friendlies and should make his debut in the first team. However as I said, I think he will play most of 2015 away from the HJ.

lets hope so

If Myler isn't here next season, as his current contract situation implies; how can he be displaced?

If Smith doesn't think Myler is up to it after this coming seasons performance, he will not renew his contract, and he will be displaced by someone else in the squad or an outside signing. Carvel was in the same situation last year, his contract was not renewed and he was displaced by (god forbid) Roy Asotasi.

What is the issue ?
