I rate Robertson very highly too.
Problem is his consistency... when he’s on, his superb to watch.

Why do you have Ebdon above White but not Parrott or Murphy?

In a few years, Trump will probably behind just ROS, Hendry, Higgins and Davis.

Judd has a LOT of work to do to overtake MJW, Reardon and Selby. Needs to start performing better in the majors, Worlds particularly if he’s to do that in just a few years.

His aim should be to land somewhere in the Higgins,Selby,Williams range in terms of World,UK,Masters which is already a big challenge. With his additional ranking titles he has good arguments on his side why he is greater than them.

Yeah he’ll definitely have way more rankers than them, that goes without saying. Whether he’ll win the worlds twice more in 5 years is less likely. One is probable but it depends when he wins that.

One WC is more than doable.
The likes of ROS Willo and Higgins are getting older by the moment, Robbo hasn't done particularly well at the WC for whatever reason (which is weird given how good he is), Selbo is declining as he ages cause he ain't that talented (and Judd mops the floor with him anyway), Ding no longer has the desire to fight, and Kyren simply ain't as good (as Judd).
With all that in mind, 2 WCs are also very doable.
