Myler may be a risk but no more of a risk than say Eastmond was/is for Saints, but who better to have as his coach than Tony Smith?

Myler rejects Salford offer : Tue Jun 23, 2009 8:24 am  

I am sorry if this has already been posted, but Myler has turned down Salford’s offer!!! Martin Offiah has cited that Salford have made him an offer that he has rejected. Reference to this is at the following link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_l ... 113190.stm Assuming Salford doesn’t come back with a revised offer, then it looks like he could be on his way to Warrington. However, rumour has it that Saints have put in a £220+k bid for him…

Another one to be merged with http://forums.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?t=415544 Maybe that thread should be changed to All Myler talk here?

The difference in the risk level though is the money involved, Eastmond came through our system so there will have been no transfer fees involved, and I think its a pretty safe bet that he is on nowhere near the money that Myler will be after at whichever club he ends up at.

So he is a bigger risk, if a player fails (which is always a possibility) then surely its better for their to only be a small amount of money being risked on them than large amounts of money.

That said, on the pitch he is probably less of a risk simply because he is more proven - whether at this stage in his career he is worth splashing the amounts of money being mentioned on his debatable but obviously the clubs interested think its an investment worth making.

you can have him!! if he decides he wants more money let him go but he will no longer to be tipped to be a class super league player...his career will go down the pan....just for the fact as at 19 years old the kid has seen money signs and not his future!!

You may only be joking with that comment but it's not called for on this or any forum.

So, setting the money aside for a second. You're claiming that moving from Salford to Warrington is a step backwards as far as his future is concerned?

Bringing the money back into it, how do you know that Warrington, wigan, Saints or wherever he ends up are offering more money than Salfords best paid player ever offer.

Strikes me as there is a little involved.

I must admit that I've not seen enough from Myler to give me the confidence that this would be as great a signing as some people think. Having said that, a quick head-head stats comparison on superleague.co.uk with Super League's other scrum halves generally shows Myler to be one of the best. Tbh, only Michael Dobson looks better. It does highlight that Myler needs to focus on his defence though as total tackles, marker tackles and missed tackles are a little below average.

i think it is a backward step because he is too young he should stay at salford until we get booted out then move on.... not wire and earning over a million a year for 19 yr old he is 2 young....
