They both have showings suggesting they're superior to each other in both departments.
This fight will always be interesting to discuss. They were the greatest physical powerhouses of the X-Men before Namor joined.

All joking aside, I like some versions of Rogue well enough. She wouldn't be my favourite character or anything, but I think Claremont's Rogue was an interesting character with good arcs. Her trying to handle Carol's psyche is some good stuff.
Around the time of Joseph though, I feel like she just kinda went... Meh? The "will they, won't they" stuff with Gambit, making her a team leader... It just wasn't handled well I thought. I don't even think they're great ideas, but still, they could have been handled better.

Which is kinda sad. The X-Men need stronger bricks/flying bricks.
Why? They're the X-Men, not the Avengers.

Namor was stronger than depowered Juggy.
Yep. It was suggested at one point that he wasn't even Colossus level, though if he has a feat I'm not recalling it, that would trump any statements.

The Carol stuff was always great. Yeah I see what mean about the rest. Shes just always had a special place in my heart since the animated series.

Seriously though, I don't blame you. Post-Crisis Aquaman's strength feats are not the most numerous or quantifiable.

Oh, animated Rogue is a different animal, even with that accent.

I guess Shes always stuck as Rogue in my mind even when reading the comics.
Oh, me too. A lot of them are the definitive versions of the characters. I can't read a comic without hearing that Gambit or Wolverine in my head.

Not a chance.
I admit it's been a while since I read it, but I don't recall depowered Juggernaut having that many great feats.
