What jokers are voting for Robinson? He's not even in the top 5.

Re: Who is the Best Flyhalf in the Aviva Premiership?
I would say the order goes:
Evans
Hodgson
Flood
Donald hasn't really done much as of yet.
Mieres seriously? Never even heard of the bloke. Robinson? What?
Agree niwatts Robinson isnt in top 5.

Right the Welshman is not in your top five but that is your opinion.

Re: Who is the Best Flyhalf in the Aviva Premiership?
There should only really be three/four names in this list:
Evans
Flood
Hodgson
Donald (not on what he's done in the AP)
Votes elsewhere are partisan more than merit based.

Can't see why anyone can see past Evans here.

Not surprised to see Evans heading the list. I think Mieres is a good call. Was in fine form last weekend, first time i had seen him play.

Interesting to see Robinson rated as highly as Flood, Hodgson and Donald...!
I always though he was too flakey, good one minute then makes a stupid mistake the next.

Is this about only on playing in the Aviva.
Because whilst Hodgson does ok at that level he has always been found seriously wanting at international level.

Most of the players in the poll havent and probably wont play international rugby. so lets just base it on the premiership.

Cymroglan it's not because he's Welsh. It's because he isn't as good as you Welshman evidently think.
Hodgson is the top points scorer in the Aviva Premiership and is consistently very good at club level yet has less votes than Robinson? What?!
Why did someone vote Farrell?
Anyway it matters not. The runaway winner is Nick Evans anyway.

Re: Who is the Best Flyhalf in the Aviva Premiership?
Mieres , Steeno , then Chris Budgen (but scrum half is probably his better position)
The best of the others would be Evans.

Re: Who is the Best Flyhalf in the Aviva Premiership?
Nick Evans comfortably. One of the best players in the English prem in recent years.
Flood, Hodgson (very, very good premership player) and possibly Donald next.
I guess maesteg is hoping the Welsh vote for Robinson. Oh, I see some of them have

Evans's game isn't flawless, but he's quite clearly the best on offer here.
As for Robinson, garbage is too good a description.

Right, mate! I think Budgen might rate in the middle of this list.Dubbelyew L Overate wrote:Mieres , Steeno , then Chris Budgen (but scrum half is probably his better position)

But, gawd, this is a sorry bunch, eh? Where are the 10s? The real 10s.
Glad you posted this. I think my 14 year old son could go out there and get a run, now. Cripe, my grandmother might slot in as well.

On current form Nick Evans is well out in front followed by Flood then Hodgson, Burns and Mieres in that order. Donald has looked poor so far and would be towards the bottom of the list (allowing for starting 10s only, obviously he's better than the average academy player/reliable sub).

Surely Gopperth is the best fly-half in the AP, nay, the world?

I think he appealed to a certain 606v2 demographic that wanted to vote for him irrespective of his comparative ability.

Never been a fan of his myself. As I said above, he is too flakey, inconsistent and unreliable.stlowe wrote:maestegmafia wrote:Interesting to see Robinson rated as highly as Flood, Hodgson and Donald...!

Mind you I imagine most Blues fans would much rather Robinson than Dan Parks... I wonder if Dai Young will let Wasps do a straight swap ? ? ?
