Myhill made his Scarlets debut in 2011, coming on as a substitute in a 26-15 defeat to Leinster. His first start came later that year, in a 35-12 loss to Munster. So far in his career, Myhill has had to settle for a back-up role in the Scarlets squad, being behind the likes of Matthew Rees, Ken Owens and Emyr Phillips in the pecking order. It was confirmed in April 2016 that Myhill would move to the Cardiff Blues for the 2016-17 season.
