James Roby : Mon May 02, 2011 3:58 pm  

Thought he was excellent today really got you on a role in the 2nd half and caused us no end of problems quality player.

Man of Steel without any doubt so far. Untouchable.

Re: James Roby : Mon May 02, 2011 4:12 pm  

I though Houghton just about matched him today, both made big inroads in to each others defence.

Roby is clearly the best English hooker in SL.

I think at some point you might see then both play for England at the same time.

I was impressed by Houghton today. He had a cracking game

Been very good all season and last year, since he took the staring position from Berrigan.

Not in the England squad or nights, which is strange IMO.

Dream on old man. Your anti Roby bias is well known , cant wait for him to get his second MoS award ... you'll need to remind me how many Houghton or say McIlorum have

To be honest, first time ive seen him for a long time, but if you say hes been close to that level all season, its a shame if he doesnt get a call up.

Total, absolute, utter bollux.

If there is a better 'hooker', nay, better all-round player in SL than James Roby at the moment then I'm a monkey's uncle.

Houghton did play well today and was on a par with Roby but imo I think Roby is the best player in the league and MOS in waiting for me.
