The mage really is more useful in almost ever raid.
The hunter is a better comparision. But most players see the hunter as more useful the raid context however. The pet can grab an add if needed plus they have range.
A rogue may be just as good as a hunter, but i think the hunter is prefered for the utility - neither is real popular.

Having been in the position of not having a mage or warlock available for some instances I was really surprised at how useful a rogue was in conjunction with a couple of tanks (in this case me with consecration and Mentat with Battle Shout). End result, Rogue unscratched and mobs dead. :)
I won't turn a rogue away from groups or raids. :)
