How so?
You were the one who said 'this season'.
My original point is true though. But there's no point arguing it because I still think Roby is a class hooker. Just not quite as good as Smith. |

Roby is a quality Hooker but would be 3rd choice for Australia behind Smith and Farah imo. Id love to see him have a shot in the NRL where i suspect he will go whenever his contract ends at saints.

There is no point in comparing hookers who are at the top of their game as they bring different skills to a team.
Roby is a scooting hooker who is fantastic defensively so suits Saints well, whereas the likes of Monaghan are more creative so he suits Warrington well.
Roby is world class hooker as is Cameron Smith etc..

| Quote: St pete "Roby for me is the best hooker in the world and also got to be in the top ten players in rugby league.
I'd have a good bet he's got the best stats In The world. Breaks, tackles, meters, assists I'd like to see anyone better.
I think this year he's took the mantle off jammer and has started to infulance the team more than he did last year.'"
We could argue forever about who is the best hooker in the world. Personally I think its Cameron Smith, however how do you judge who are the best players in the world? Surely you can only be the best in your position.
How do you compare Billy Slater to James Roby, Greg Inglis to Jonathan Thurston or Sam Thaiday to Ryan Hall?
He might have the best stats in the World but thats in SL not the NRL where the intensity is so much higher! |

Mickey McIllorum is already planning his career away from rugby, anyone who has seen "Being Human" on BBC 3, will have seen him in a staring role as Tom the werewolf.
Sorry, can't find a link.

Find it tough to pick between Roby and Smith. Maybe Smith would just edge it because of his kicking game but then again, maybe Roby would just edge it through the metres he makes. Much as I like McIlorum, he isn't as good as either of these two unfortunately.

Henderson ran Roby ragged tonight, but it was because they had a big pack that drove forward and once they sorted out their discipline Saints lightweight pack was well beaten.
