When we are defending on our line and Sam Burgess is winding up I would rather Robbo than any other halfback. His D is better than almost any other 7 and he will organise and get a decent backline moving. We just haven't had one for years. We do now. Watch him look like a champ in the first few games.
Well sam burgess is gone so there's no need for robbo anymore

Argument is invalid again! Warriors have Johnson, souths have Reynolds, dogs have hodkinson. Manly has average front rowers as do melbourne minus brimming. So I say a half makes players look way better

Let me explain how you are actually agreeing with me... :)
We are saying the same thing - either the team's star player is their half, who makes those around him look even better, or a solid workman half can look good due to game winners in his (or her...) side. A number of those halves you've mentioned have looked pretty ordinary as their teams form fluctuated, and haven't been able to singlehandedly turn that around.

I was actually being nice to him Jim Bob. 2014 was the best year in attack he has had in Sharks colours, in fact he got a career high 11 try assists this year.

Hamsy, please tell me this is all from memory!

Shut up!! Robson is ****!!
Best Stat of all would be his percentage of penalty kicks to touch that never made it ahahhaha he is a joke and as are we for employing him.

I dunno, Nu Brown would give him some competition in that department.

Also if you think was a joke that we signed a halfback that lead us to two consecutive finals series, you must be a hard man to please.

Lead, I don't think so. Carney and Fifita were the players that lead us to the finals.
