And what I am suggesting is that whether the players around him are playing well or not he is not a top class half back.

| Tend to agree with Marsdengiant on this one.
He was playing with the Invisible Man against Saints - some shocking passing. Can't blame anyone else for those.
However, his effort can't be questioned and I sincerely hope he stuffs my comments down my throat on Friday.

| Watching the highlights last night, and I think there were a lot of culprits for wayward passing, Robbo shouldnt be singled out.
More importantly, how long was Crabtree stood waiting to offload when he broke through close to their line?
Any longer he would have had pidgeons sat on his head but no support whatsoever.

| Quote: Marsdengiant "robinson is a decent half back for the bottom half of SL. If you want to win the biggest games he is out of his depth.
He can't kick , can't pass l to r and cannot control a game. Big heart and nice guy but lacking what it takes.
Looking at the wakey game last nice we could do with someone like a Drew ( playing better) or a Grix
Really??
Thought he was average at best, and it showed he is not up to scratch to play 6 in SL. His passing was shocking!

Yes really.
Having seen him play a few times and seen the things he is capable of I think Brown will help him to develop and utilse his skills. we have seen ball players with good base skills like Moore /Lunt /Brown come on leaps and bounds under NB.
Clearly in the mass exodus of your 1st teamers he is one you are happy to see go...so be it.

No, would quite like to keep him, but as a squad player that can cover a few positions. If it was the choice of having him at 6 for the full year or losing him then yes, happy to see him go.
Time will tell l suppose!

Simon Finnigan was on his shoulder waiting for him to pop a pass out. The support play was there but he just wasn't aware of it.

| Robinson = most overrated player in super league. I never really liked brown either, but he must have something, cos huddersfield look nowhere near the same team without him.

| ......but if you insist .................a group of fans voting on a 3-2-1` for each match have come up with the following :-
22 L.Robinson
16 B.Hodgson
15 S.Moore
14 K.Mason
12 E.Crabtree
12 D.Kirmond
11 A.Raleigh
9 D.Faiumu
9 S.Lunt
8 L.Cudjoe
8 L.Fulton
7 K.Brown
5 D.Hodgson
4 S.Wild
3 P.Whatuira
3 D.Sculthorpe
Not saying all will agree - but to pillory the lad wont do much good !
After all the club signed him to do the job and looking at the above - he cant be TOO badly, can he??
His trouble might just be he tries TOO hard -- but if others around dont -- is that really something to criticise
Like the initial comment -- some shouldnt carry knives!
Too quick to apportion blame I say! Get off his back - wont do any good -- he might try harder still!

So who has pilloried Robinson?
He has a very weak short kicking game. His kicking to touch is poor and his long kicking game is non existent. He is very poor passing left to right - so much so that sometimes he appears blind to players on his left hand side when a break is made. If dozens of posters want to score him 3 that does not change his kicking game one jot. And a scoring system that rates him higher than Brett Hodgson is ridiculous.
He is not a top of SL scrum half. We will see what Nathan thinks when the contract is up for renewal.
In key games in 2010 I would have Drewy ahead of him every time.
If you have some rugby points about Robbo's game then let's hear them. The talk about knives is pointless.
