I should have said Houghton, to be fair. He has been the main man this season.

Some posters seem to have very short memories!!
Sam Powell has been outstanding in MM's absence but work ethic should be a given in my opinion, although sadly it is not, a fully fit, which sadly he hasn't been for nearly 2 years now, MM is still the best hooker in SL when it really matters!!
However, do you really think he is at the same standard as Roby?
Imo Roby is clearly superior.
Siddick, it's lovely up here this aft meds, sun splitting the trees, hope you get some good bites and land one or two. Not sure if the fishing is good but the siddick locals are a catch. ????????????medlocke wrote:Dunno, supposed to be going fishing up SiddickPanchitta Marra wrote:Beyond all the negatives being put on this site re Friday nights defeat, players supposedly injured or suspended, a coach who has no idea.

If Mac isn't in the same class as Roby, why is it that Roby very seldom has a good game against Wigan when Mac is on the pitch, yet when Mac isn't playing, Roby puts on man of the match displays? I've only seen Roby ever play one reasonable game against McIllorum, and in that game Mac was carrying an injury.old hooker wrote:Roby has been the best 9 for a few years now and still is.MM very tough and competitive but not in Robys class imo.
VERY true all of that. Roby is up with the very best ever Saints hookers when he does retire. At his peak he had the ability to turn in tackles and go forward despite having his back to goal. Bateman did a similar run v Saints.Wintergreen wrote:It's not about hooker vs hooker in games though is it?
I do agree Roby might be on a downwards trend now, but he is still a class act.
Having said that I am delighted that we have MM in our team.
If it's not about hooker v hooker then its a massive coincidence that Roby is so ineffective whenever Mac is playing, yet he can still turn it on against Wigan when Micky is not playing.Wintergreen wrote:It's not about hooker vs hooker in games though is it?
