James Roberts

[Mark D]

Some word that James Roberts is leaving Brisbane and heading back to a Sydney club.... Surely he is the speed we need...

 

[TomRedVRiver]

No brainer for me.

1. Mann/Dufty
2. Earl
3. Roberts
4. Lafai
5. Macdonald/Nightingale
6. Widdop
7. Hunt

That is a sexy backline.

Oh God does it ever end!

Signing Roberts and teaming him up with Lafai would make a massive difference to our backline.
Add Dufty at fullback and you may see our existing wingers scoring piles of tries.

Unbluudybelievable ! Really , I mean the bloke came to down to the Gong a couple of years ago and more or less said that he wouldn't want to live there ( what an insult to the good people of Wollongong ) .

Yes it would be nice to have a player that has his speed and elusiveness , however not with the name of James Roberts . IMO , a ticking timebomb .
Out of curiosity , there must be a ' cleanskin ' out there somewhere in rugby league land , one that comes without any warning labels , such as ' handle with care - contents corrosive ' ?

I'm sure lady boys all over the world would be reaching for the vas jar as we speak.
But seriously, I'm not a fan of Aitken but you'd replace him with a 27 yr ols wgo hasn't played thw game for 4 yrs.....you can't be serious!
Roberts needs an expansive game to show his worth....we have the spluttering power game.
Whilst i'm all for speed in our team our game plan does not suit a quick spread remembet wr are about hit up aftet hit up after hit up then kick.
As long as McGregor is coach players like Roberts and co would catch a cold at the Dragons.

Bang on mate.
Roberts is a time bomb waiting to go off.
The very reason as stated that he is not settled / never settled.
Doesn't like the Gong, eh?
Yeh, probably better back at the Cross, Bondi, etc.
Got the talent, just not the head,

 

[FlameThrower]

Anyone watch the Rabbits and Pantgers game?? Examples of outright speed and long range tries on display...we can only dream of that.
Roberts has that outright speed, but looks like he could go off the rails at any moment.
We raved on about our junior retention - which was great, but we are soooooo conservative in bringing these guys into FG. Dufty I hear is carving it up, so bring him into FG now.. Nighty is not the answer and we've blown a great opportunity to blood Dufty or even Mann as FB thus far.

 

[Rocket Rod]

Would be great to pinch two key players off mercenary Bennett.
We've got one in Hunt and Roberts would irk him big time.
Lock him in !!!

 

[blacksafake]

Will probably end up at the eagles.

 

[Gareth67]

Will probably end up at the eagles.

So they have a rehabilitation clinic too ? ?

I wouldn't want to live in Wollongong either.

 

[Pro Dragons]

Roberts needs a 24hr handler. He suits a team full of stars that can set him up and point in the direction of the tryline. Sadly, the Dragons only know their own tryline from standing behind it waiting for the opposition to convert their tries.

 

[West coast dragon]

I have to say I went over to Sydney for game 2 stayed way out whoop whoop at Douglas park and went down to Wollongong for the day and thought it was a beautiful city from what I saw!

 

[Blood Shot Eyes]

Sorry not even going to hazzard a guess on this one.....wasnt we talking about him coming here lasy year...just put his name along with all the otbers on the strip magnet and put it on the fridge

Why exactly in your case ?

 

[Bests Golden Boots]

FFS.
I'd like a backline of.....

Tedesco
Vunavalu
Hayne
Roberts
Johnston
Thurston
Cronk

But we all have dreams, and barring a quick bucket run at Kogarah Oval for a gold coin donation, it just ain't gunna happen.
So how about we just promote our very promising juniors instead.

 

[Brutalitops]

To me, Wollongong is like a more boring version of where I grew up (Newcastle). I have grown into a big city person though so that's probably why it doesn't appeal to me

You're kidding!! Does that mean we're playing Jack Bird in reserves?
