I'll second that, we have enough of "our own" posting tripe without AS108 spouting ruccish too.

So what the are you going on about it for????

Wayne Bennett and his assistants obviously thought so, I personally would disagree but at least Percival did get in the squad and play.

And you do realise that a lot of Hull fans would also "personally disagree" that Roby is better than Houghton?

Exactly, Hull fans would. If you were to go and ask every neutral in the country who’s better then at least 85% would say Roby. Percival did actually get in the England squad yet Houghton didn’t and two players did before him. It’s genuinely concerning that Houghton vs Roby is even a debate. Both have played in quite poor sides, Roby has always stood out, Houghton only in the last few years where Hull have been better as a team. Not to mention Roby has 5 dream team appearances and a Harry Sunderland trophy.

yawn, we get it, a St's fan prefers a St's player

IN YOUR opinion he's world class, he isn't the best FB in SL over the last 5 years, he's not the best player in SL this season either.
YOU said there were no world class players, i haven't.
My third paragraph doesn't contradict as i haven't said Houghton is world class.
Clearly your rant is far more moronic given you can't read nor work out a basic concept or three
Hodgson nor Clarke have done anything of note in an England shirt, massively off top interational level.
Get back under your bridge, you're clueless sonshine

if he (Barba), is "World Class" why isn't he playing in the NRL and first choice to play for his country?

Roby! world class that lad

Robys better than Houghton and Barbas better than shaul. Sneyd is better than richardson and kelly is better than whoever will be at stand off. Our 3/4 are better than saints imo and forwards pretty even so if we play well we should be in with a big shout if winning it. Walmsley is a massive loss for them and more or less evens out watts as a loss to us.

We've proven in the last couple if years were better than saints if we play to our potential but the problem is we rarely seem to

Confident we will get a result tomorrow. Dont believe the hype just because they have strolled past a few whipping boys. Leeds outplayed them. Wigan game could have gone either way. Without Walmsley they just don't have the firepower to cause us enough problems. As long as we are disciplined and don't cough up too much ball in our own half we will win. Roby is great, Barba is great, Thompson is playing really well, Percival is capable. The rest of the team is nothing to write home about at all.

Roby's past it now, has been for the last 3 years. Never was world class, you can only claim to be if you go to the NRL otherwise its like saying a Glasgow Rangers player is. Cam Smith has been far and away the best for 10 years at least.

Bang on the money IMO

Roby me and the lads were talking about last week, and we all pretty much agreed he has been the standout hooker for many years. Houghton is great and I love him, but Roby is better.

I am going anyway, and I reckon we will get beat by 10, but we have a chance that's for sure

One man team are the Saints, and that man will more than likely be gone next year, possibly this season, if his penchant for drug abuse returns.

Danny Houghton for me, years younger. Wouldn’t swap for the ageing James Roby
