It is a very small corridor," Burgess said of the incident in his post-match press conference. "He made some smart comment as I was walking past. He really doesn't need to do that.

"I get he is new in the job - so am I. But the game is done, it's done now. Let's move on."

This is all handbags at ten paces stuff!! The kind of kerfuffle that gets modern day 'social media' in a tizzy!!

The club were absolutely right to deny Warrington's request, as Wire would be if the situation was reversed, it wasn't up to us to correct another club's mistake.
We could be accused of trying to steal an advantage from the situation, but quite frankly so would every other club in this scenario. If a club, any club, can exploit a situation for their own gain then, invariably, they will, they would be stupid not too. This isn't a kickabout between mates down the park on a Sunday afternoon, it's professional sport, which is a cut throat business.

Do unto others as they would do unto you is probably the best way to sum this up. I don't think any modern day sporting organization is in a position to start claiming the moral high ground in situations such as this.

Myler should keep his trap shut though, no need to antagonise anyone from another club when we might need to do some deals with them

Re: MYLER : Sat May 04, 2024 1:01 pm  

Well done Myler. Showing he's all in with us at FC

Re: MYLER : Sat May 04, 2024 1:01 pm  

Excuse me Mr Burgess, we made a mistake in our calls when doing our set pieces, which ment we didn't score as many as we should have. If we did it correctly we would've scored 25 points.waning we would've won.
Can you tell the RFL please and Thank you

Re: MYLER : Sat May 04, 2024 1:03 pm  

He needs to understand that he's under the spotlight far more now than he ever was as a player and that his actions and attitude potentially have a direct impact on others at the club. Reputational damage can be costly in sport.

That said, I do agree that he made the right decision despite the fact that he shouldn't have even been asked.

I hope Burgess has a multipack of dummies on order. It looks like he'll need them. No hope of finding the one from last night. Probably landed in Leigh Sports Village somewhere.

What did he say? How do you know this is what he did?

I take what Burgess says with a pinch of salt. Especially when he has much more controversial off field behaviour than Myler.

Re: MYLER : Sat May 04, 2024 1:26 pm  

Myler was always an annoying little twot when he played so i can believe he said something antagonistic. There were definitely words exchanged. I'm glad we didn't agree to their request but we need to be professional. We don't want our DOR getting into arguments with officials from other clubs

You don’t know this?

Might have just said something trying to make a joke of the situation but Burgess was still sulking about it and used his playground bully tactic of nudging into him.

So far Myler has been quite professional in the way he has handled himself and spoke to the media.

Why do some of our fans instantly think he could be in the wrong?

We should all stick together and sing from the same hymn sheet unless the facts prove he has spoken out of turn.
