I'm willing to put it out there that, along with Dott, Robertson is the most underrated player in snooker. For some unknown reason, he seems to be derided constantly in spite of the great success he has had. Why exactly?

Six ranking finals, six wins, a superb conversion rate from the semi-finals onwards. Selby is critically acclaimed on the other hand, but has done precious little in comparison to Robertson. Doesn't make sense to me.

I think he has made a rod for his own back with the coughing, the silly hats, the tardy attitude to timeliness and his lack of flair. All these elements have made him a big turn off. In fact he is, IMVHPO, just another manufactured leftie. Thats right "walk into the shot, Mr Robot".

Good luck MJW, kick Robbos ass !!! :hatoff:

Nobody underrates Robertson.

Carter for example really is an underrated player.

Neither Paul or Ding have been as successful as Neil. That World title with 5 rankers to go with it holds a lot of weight.

neither been World Champion and Ding not even reached 6 Tournament wins hes on 5 and Hunter 6 .

no comparison mate although ding might surpass him hes only 24.

hes OVER rated rather than under rated

an excessive haul of rankers compared to the similar peers of his generation thanks to lucky draws

his long potting is yawn so boring these days, hardly anything to write home about

hes so boring to watch and hes turned into a right sad act since he had a kid, even Selt cant be fussed with him anymore

He thinks having a Lego Man hairstyle made of old straw hes found in a barn, constitutes having a personality.

Hes duller than an episode of Prisoner Cell Block H

Ding has 6 years on him so of course he will surpass him unless something incredible happens.

Ding leads 3-1 on majors count which is good enough for me

as does Hunter, so to say theres no comparison, then yeh i think your right there, Robbo isnt in their class.

Anyway the boy wonder Trump will achieve far more by the times hes nearly 30 than Wurzel ever has.
