Message: [QUOTE="Matheos, post: 3039972, member: 8607"] Yes whilst Roberts had a break-out season last year and warranted his origin jersey, I do feel like we have never seen his full potential and still lacked overall consistency. From my perspective, Roberts' being 'under-utilised' is more to do with his lack of intensity and hunger to get involved and go looking for the ball more. There were numerous periods where he would be all too content with waiting on an edge and even little things, like backing up a ball runner or taking a hit-up from dummy half coming out of our end was very rare. Souths have picked up an enigmatic talent, no one is denying that, but given issues with attitude, an absence of team culture and a tendency to drift out of games I am actually fine with the fact he has left us. As a contrast, consider the fan reaction if it was Latrell Mitchell who left to go to Souths instead. Majority of their fans, sponsors and officials would be outraged and hurt. This just highlights the gap between Mitchell, the game's best centre and Roberts, whom many thought was on an equal standing. Not even close... [/QUOTE]
