Will he top Graham's immense yardage record this season?

I'd say so. I put £5 on him to be man of steel at the start of the season at 14/1, I hope he carries his form on.

Looking at his current stats on the Engage Super League site make for some astonishing reading:

Meters - 2049 - 1st (next nearest 1455)
Carries - 381 - 1st (next nearest 270)
Runs from Dummy Half - 316 - 1st (next nearest 146)
Tackles - 396 - 2nd (45 behind 1st place)
Offloads - 20 - 7th
Tackle Busts - 32 - 7th
Try Assists - 7 - 8th
Marker Tackles - 51 - 10th

Only 19 missed tackles giving a tackle completion rate of 95.5%
Only 4 penalties

If he continues averaging over 200m per game, he'll beat James Grahams record (4582) by around 1000m meters!!

If you can get a naild on certainty this early in the season, then he must be a shoe in for MoS

He is doing at present, anyway. He's been top all season so far and by some margin.

He's been awesome and didn't expect anything else. I've said fir a while, he's one of a very few worldclass players england have.

Lets hope this guy avoids injury, as far as personal acheivements that's all well and good, but come the business end if we are to be in with a chance of winning ou't we need Roby to be going as well as he is now.

Re: Rambo Roby : Tue Apr 19, 2011 1:51 pm  

He's truly devastating around the ruck at the moment, which is good because I thought he wasn't living up to his talent after winning MoS before. If he keeps it up he's MoS again this year.

Robes stats in attack are shockingly good.

Robes stats in defence are shockingly good.

He really is the full deal ! a 1 off ... :BOW

Without doubt. I haven't seen any NRL this season, but i would go as far as saying that Roby is one of the best players in the world, not just England.
