He's seen off ex-Man of Steel Zak Hardaker and rising star Jack Walker. But Richie Myler insists he still doesn’t see himself as Leeds Rhinos’ out-and-out number one.
There’s no doubting the ex-England scrum-half has made a brilliant transition to the full-back role over the last three seasons. Indeed, Rhinos boss Rohan Smith has felt confident enough in his quality to allow Hardaker’s departure to Leigh and Walker’s exit to Bradford.
It should be no surprise, then, that Myler’s been promoted to that jersey and will likely start there in the Betfred Super League opener at Warrington. But does it make the Lance Todd Trophy winner proud he’s been able to make such a switch so later in his career and hold off such impressive challengers?
