Would you rather holdsworth? Roberts will be our 5/8 for the rest of the year and he will improve, And for you he wont get a start at any other club comment, Neither would armit or waburton they seem to be doing fine in fg, His had his problems with the ball etc but he has a ****load of potential give him some more time.certainly did mate they also have played vangana at no.6 in the past showing exactly how low there stocks are in the 5/8 department and i'll stand by my post regarding roberts making starting 5/8 in any other team
Agreed. He was one of our best today and always had the defence in 2 minds. I think he has some vision and when he doesn't overplay his hand, his a good player.I'm not talking about the future Luke. Like I said Roberts has always had a problem with consistency. But all I am saying is that today he was very, very good, it was encouraging to see and it would be good for everyone (even the Roberts haters like yourself ) to acknowledge that and "give it up" for Benny Roberts.
i never new i was a roberts hater as i can't stand people bagging out our players but come to think of it i'm not sure i have ever rated him lolI'm not talking about the future Luke.

But all I am saying is that today he was very, very good, it was encouraging to see and it would be good for everyone (even the Roberts haters like yourself ) to acknowledge that and "give it up" for Benny Roberts.
Don't pay yourself on the back to early Ben.....its only one game where he played pretty good. Still some patches in the game where i feel he disappears.Credit where credit is due.
Roberts is much maligned by many of you guys on here. Alot of the criticisms are fair but also alot of people had written him off.
Myself and a few others have always maintained that when not relied upon as a playmaker and when allowed to play his natural running game he can be an extremely dangerous and good player.
Obviously consistency is always an issue for Roberts and I'm not saying that after today he will continue on with that form. But I am saying credit where credit is due.
He was easily one of our best today, he created a tonne of opportunities, took the line on and always was an attacking threat and put in some nice kicks also.
Lets hope he can continue that form.
Pretty much what i think about Roberts. Kimmorley will do him a lot of good for sure.having Kimmorley in the team is great for Roberts - takes the pressure of him and allows him to play his natural game.
What has impressed me so far this year is that he seems to be a little bit sharper and he has improved his defence.
He is not overplaying his hand, whether that be running, passing or kicking.
he would walk straight into parramatta side right now....plus tigersben i rarely disagree with you on actual football related matters but honestly mate you have to be watching roberts through blue and white eyes i doubt he would make 5/8 in any other side in the comp
Not doing that at all mate as evidenced by the quote of mine below from this very thread. But again, I am ackowledging that he played very well today and I hope that he can keep it up.Don't pay yourself on the back to early Ben.....its only one game where he played pretty good.

Agreed.....i actually think Roberts is best suited as well by not being in control. I hope he just continues to run at the line like he has been doing. With that quick step he is another weapon to our side.Not doing that at all mate as evidenced by the quote of mine below from this very thread.

Very true.Agreed.....i actually think Roberts is best suited as well by not being in control. I hope he just continues to run at the line like he has been doing. With that quick step he is another weapon to our side.
Wargburton needs to be dropped immediately!!! there seems to be a strange coaches pet complex at the dogs... and warburton appears to be the 2009 coaches pet (past coaches pets include grimaldi - that guy had zero talent and also, Trent Cutler last year). Warburton could have a complete shocker and not get dropped... Armit is doing fine in fg but not warburtonWould you rather holdsworth?
