I suspect Bailey or maybe Hudson. I'm leaning more towards Bailey though.

1. "As if a spineless little thing like you would have the guts" - That rules out Toadie, Paul, Mason etc.

2. "If you wanna go forward you have to put it in Drive. The D for dumb." - It sounds like he is talking to someone who doesn't have much driving experience. Why would he tell someone who already knows how to drive to put it in drive to go forward?

My only lingering questions is what would Bailey have gotten from him? as Robbo said "Never mind, i'll get it back." (Although this could have been meant in a variety of different contexts) BUT I did go back to when Chris told Amber about the tape and just before Amber went over to them and found out she was talking to Bailey in the background. When she went over to them Bailey was still in the background but went over to look at some of the pictures. But then I don't know where he went because they started doing close up shots of Amber - blocking him out. So maybe he over heard?

The only reason I think it could be Hudson is because

Sachin (Ajay) confirmed in a digital spy interview that the guy who plays Hudson will be leaving.

And the other reason being that Hudson & Josh had already planned to meet up with Robbo.

Also does Robbo even know Hudson? How could Robbo call him "a spineless little thing" if he doesn't even know him?

EDIT: Also may I just add that i'm absolutely LOVING Jamber (Amber & Josh)! I haven't loved a couple in Neighbours this much since Donna & Ringo.♥

Good theory Dingo X

My prediction is it is either Marty (Paul's hired goon), Hudson as you explained already and Lucas as he was furious with losing all his money to Robbo when he was involved in illegal gambling with him.

Your prediction of Bailey is a very interesting one. I really didn't consider him a suspect at all, but from memory when Mason and Robbo were involved in the Mount Isa robbery wasn't Bailey able to drive to the warehouse to stop Mason. If it is Bailey, then he deserves to go to Juvenile detention no matter how bad or mean Robbo may be.

The phrase 'you spineless little thing' could be interpreted in a number of different ways, however all we know is that there are a countless number of suspects at the moment.

[Dingo x]

Oh yeah. I forgot that Bailey was the driver for the job in Mount Isa.

Yeah, Lucas is the other one on my suspect list.

Do you think Lucas could have convinced Robbo to have one last quick game with him after that scene ended? That would explain the "Never mind i'll get it back" he could have let Lucas win the game, but then the next game was planning to get the money back he just lost and some? (It's a bit of a stretched, but do we actually know what time Robbo was hit - before or after midnight?)

Plus since Scott and Alin are leaving it makes sense that it could have been Lucas. Maybe Lucas and Vanessa go on the run?

OMG! and I just remembered something! It was Imogen and Mason's car found at the scene, yes? the car was at the garage! Did Lucas have a spare set of keys to the car? - Has the car been explained?

I haven't seen any of the episodes after Robbo got hit.

But as you said there are so many suspects. & analyzing everyone and the scene, there are just so many connections to make!

Neighbours seriously have done an incredible job with this storyline, it seriously has gotten everyone's brain working overtime!

It's driving me crazy as well. I'm trying to this figure this out, and this demonstrates as a result that the writers have done an excellent job with the storyline.

[TelephotoMarigold]

Not only have the writers hit it out of the ballpark but the promo team are doing a great job. We're getting snippets of information and bits and pieces of what happened but they aren't giving away the storyline (like a certain other soap would!).

Suspects:

Lucas

Bailey

Josh

Amber

Imogen

Toady

Paul's henchman

Mason

I think we can rule out Bailey because he didn't know about the recording that Robbo made of Amber. Also how would he have accessed the car?

Amber was out all night and stole Imogen's keys to the car. She woke up in the place where Robbo was squatting. If she'd run him over would she have gone there after doing it?

Toady woke up in the car and tried to start it, unable to find the keys which had fallen down the side of the seat. He had no memory of what happened. Is this why he couldn't find the keys?

Mason repaired the car. Using his set of keys to got fetch it. Would he have used his keys if he knew that the Imogen's keys were dropped inside the car?

Josh. Flashbacks show Josh and Robbo fighting. Did he then take the car run over the other man? How did he find the keys?

Lucas has the money back from Robbo. Did he take it from him after a fight or after he'd used Imogen and Mason's car to run over the man. We know that Scott is leaving the show and has been quoted as saying that his character of Lucas is going down a dark path. Did he do it?

Paul's henchmen. Told to get out of town quickly after news of Robbo's 'accident' spread. Wanted in on the games Robbo was putting on but Robbo believed he was a cop. He knew something was suss about Lucas. Did he follow the other man and see him and Robbo fight before Lucas got his money back and then take advantage of Imogen's car being parked up to run over Robbo?

Two things: Nice to see the guy who played Henk appearing with an impressive accent to boot!

Secondly, I have to give full respect to Neighbours for treating addiction with the respect it deserves. Brilliant work to all concerned.

[Jezz]

Yep I'm really enjoying Neighbours at the moment. Great to see the actor who played Henk back in 2007 and 2008 on Home and Away return to our screens on Neighbours as Vanessa's ex-husband (technically husband by law) Alek.

There's still a countless number of suspects who killed Robbo. I'm still going with either Hudson or Marty in my opinion.

[JackWilkins]

Can I just say how completely phenomenal Neighbours is at the moment. Seriously.

[Jezz]

It's been great

No surprises that Hudson was the person who killed Robbo in the end. The clues were obvious beforehand. Wednesday's episode was brilliant.

[dncllpyk]

I knew it was Hudson who killed Robbo. I wonder if it will be manslaughter or murder? Considering Hudson only meant to scare considering there were no witness' it will probably be murder. Robbo was egging him on though
