| Needs to super glue his collar to his neck, a good 3 times he got ragged. Tighter shirt needed as stated! I was actually encouraged by his performance last night, he took on the line very well.
I think some fans needs to understand that when Briers isn't there we shouldn't expect Myler to do everything, he has experienced ball playing creative players around him such as Hodgson and Monaghan, surley we should expect more from them when Briers isn't there? Rather then heaping all the pressure/expectation on a player who is still maturing and learning, some of the criticism coming his away is completely unjustified. PS Hodgson had his best game in a wire shirt.

| It's the same Ritchie Myler who is a very good Rugby League player, and the same Casual Des who I met for the first time in a pub in Cardiff and who came across as a complete toss pot. Warrington bloody casuals, what a load of rubbish.

you think Myler organised that attack last night......?
Bret Hodgson organised everything....how he didnt get man of the match by a country distance was staggering.
Myler was the only player I was dissapointed in last night...... and the organising thing...not a chance .........he did a lot of arm waving to tell players to get deeper or get wider...and thats all he did he even waved somebody deeper and there was no one near him to follow this instruction...!!
to me it looked like he was trying really hard to be an organiser while he had the chance with Briers out......but it didnt work for me lots of arm waving and hand clapping and no end product, thankfully we had Brett Hodgson......
Makes Tony Smiths decision to drop him for wembley last year look absolutely the right thing he has a long way to go in his development.

Stop talking with your d**k out!
The lad cant do right for doing wrong. He organises alot, he set up his side all game only for Higham to go the opposite way everytime.
Hodgson did deserve MOM but Myler wasnt far behind!

Think about it. With Hodgson floating about, he would be hard pressed to direct the structure of attack. I was quite impressed with Myler, lots of demanding the ball at first receiver and varying his play.

He seems to have visibly gained in confidence by his shouting and waving which is a good thing. But when you watch Briers do it he sets things up. The guys he tells where to stand and where to run normally end up getting the ball or being a dummy runner .
Maybe i expect more than just telling blokes to stand deeper and then simply shipping the ball on to Hodgson. But as long as that's working why should i worry.

Your right Myler is a good player (maybe not what we expected though).
Your wrong on the other point pal!

Can you explain what you did expect then, or are you one of those who really didn't have much of a clue what we were getting?

I did expect a bit better kicking game and more taking on the line and running from hiim and side stepping like he did at Salford, but he seems to have become a very safety first player to me with the odd flash off brilliant supporting.
His all round game doesn't seem to have come together as much as I thought.

| If this fella put 'Cider' in his username, would you still respond? What if he put 'Casual Ray'? This thread is worthy of 606.

So you basically bought the hype that often builds up on sites like this, that we were getting some fully developed, rugby genius??...
If Myler was as good as you, and many others seem to believe he was, at Salford, then surely Salford would have done a hell of a lot better as a side than they actually were, with him there?
Myler has potential, he always has done...At Salford he probably looked very special because it was amongst a lot of mediocrity....However, now he has plenty of classy players around him he has to learn how to pick and choose his own 'moments'.....Its the classic 'small fish in large pond' scenario.
As I said before, I don't see him being another Lee Briers, he has never been that type of player, but certainly in 2 or 3 years time, I would expect him to be a lot more of a leader than he is at present, but ultimately that will only come with experience.

Thats exactly the problem. Kevin Penny had it as well, remember "the new Offiah" rubbish, no wonder he got described as 'overrated' after that.
It wasn't Myler's fault some people on the internet made him out to be the new Shaun Edwards. I had a realistic expectation of what we were getting in Myler, a lad who was fast, has an eye for a gap and will score tries and in a good side will do a lot of damage. So far I have been pleased and think for his age he is a good player and will be a good asset in the long term.
The key thing about Myler is how long he continues to improve and whether he peaks early. The difference IMO between Briers and his rivals Thorman, Orr, Horne, Cooke, is that those four all peaked in their early 20s and stayed at about the same level or slipped down after that, whereas Briers kept getting better season after season and was still on the up after he passed 30.

Sounds like you were at a different game to me on Friday. There were plenty of occasions I saw Atkins talking to Myler, Myler talking back, arranging things down our left, communicating between the forwards and centres really well - and Brett Hodgson wasn't within 10 feet of him. Myler's got a way to go but he's looked like he's really pushed on this season from where he was last and long may he continue.

| Myler is a tryscorer - end of. Hasn't he scored in 6 of the last 7 games. Also he got 20 in 22 super league games last year. Saying that, we hounded out a winger with a record of 26 tries in 39 games.

| If the Wire get to Wembley again this year how many of you would go with Myler at 7 as opposed to last year's suprise selection of Monners at half back from the Special One?
