Message: [QUOTE="Thelmus, post: 3019349, member: 8988"] whilst Roberts at hooker would be a disaster (he doesn't work hard enough in defence and is a bit suspect), I wish he would push himself into dummy half and run the way Hodges did after a forwards has bent or broken the line. The problem is his pass is so-so and he doesn't seem to have the ability to set up his wing like many a good centre. He, of course, makes up for it with his breaks and that blistering speed but its something he needs to work on (it'll extend his shelf life as everyone gets slower). If he can't get it right I'd like to see him swap with his wing occasionally (not consistently) in attack. It'd put off defenders and just give a little variety without changing too much. There are plenty of big wingers out there and a more agile bloke like Roberts going up against them, running around them or with a kick through the line would be a nightmare, particularly with a stacked blindside and an open side starved of defenders. He does the kick chase at centre but they are usually set up to defend against it. [/QUOTE]
