Im hoping that brett kimmorley could have some input into this once the pre season gets underway next year. It looks at the moment that holdsworth is a lot more comfortable in the halves than roberts. Experience in that area has been lacking since the loss of shifty.

DJ & Roberts are both shocking.


Id pick Ben Roberts, Not on current form, but because of what he can do when his in form. If he can re-find the form next year of earlier this year he'll be great gunners.

DJ. Solid passing game and throws a good flat pass, decent support player also.
Roberts can run and bust a few tackles that is it. No vision what so ever. Ultility player at best

Ben Roberts is a centre. He won't get that either - Josh Morris will get it. I say Barba with Groom on the bench.

I think Ben Roberts is the worst player in the game!I would much rather Daniel Holdsworth!I wouldn't put Roberts in any position,not even on the bench.I think he is useless!He can't kick.He just kicks and hopes and he never makes a break or sets anyone up for a try.Does anyone agree with this!
There are aspects of DJ game @ 5/8 that I prefer over Roberts. I would generally say DJ, But the fact we will have Noddy, Given noddy will direct most of the play I think DJ would be best option.
I still think there is room for roberts in our squad.

Holdsworth at 5/8, Roberts to play outside left wing. Barba at fullback, Patten won't be back unfortunately.

We have persevered with Roberts and Holdsworth for long enough and neither one of them is good enough to be in first grade. I can't believe we are playing this pair in the halves and then we make a young kid like Barba play out of position at fullback in his first couple first grade games.
All we are doing is risking blowing his confidence by being exposed as out of position and out of his depth.
Barba played as a fullback before we recruited him.
