Really didn’t think this was going to happen. The guy seems like a bit of a dickhead but he can play. Hopefully Wayne can keep him in line.

Rabbitohs sign James Roberts immediately: https://www.rabbitohs.com.au/news/2019/05/29/Rabbitohs-sign-James-Roberts-immediately/

Roberts joins the Rabbitohs: https://www.rabbitohs.com.au/news/2019/05/29/roberts-joins-the-rabbitohs/

This makes me so friggin happy!!! In my opinion, Roberts is a fantastic player, a freak when he's in form and he should add some real x-factor to the backline. Hopefully Wayne can get him back to his best. he called Souths 'home' so hopefully he will be more happy and settled here.

I also feel he has matured a lot so again, hopefully he can stay on the straight and narrow and just focus on the footy.

I agree im so happy he has come home, thanks seibold, but make no mistake,he is high maintenance, but nothing an arm around his shoulders and a few lovey dovies in his ear wont fix,welcome home, the jet has landed!

This signing will bite us on the ass.
I kind of agree. 2 and a half years is waaay too long a contract for a bloke with massive question marks. It’s not just the dickhead question, I’m confident WB can work his magic there. For me the biggest question is that he is very injury prone. Adding him to a backline that is already rather injury prone itself is a $400k gamble. But what’s done is done, so let’s roll the dice. Glory, Glory!!

The guy can play, nobody is doubting that but he has a history of poor discpline which is the reason he left the club in the first place and hasn't exactly shown improvement since.
