Did you see him play in the flesh or was it before your time?

I think the reason he get's mentioned a lot is that we haven't, in my opinion, had a 2nd rower as good in the 35+ years since. He was that good. Appeared out of nowhere with blistering pace on an impeccable line and timed pass. He also wasn't afraid of biff.

I saw him and I don’t think he wouldn’t make my top ten. I preferred him at centre.

Opinions are all my own.
I welcome anyone else’s thoughts.
But no way was Roberts that high of a back rower in my opinion. He was a handy dominant centre, he played backrow as he did at centre.

And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....

You must be thinking of someone else, because Roberts barely played centre - I'm genuinely struggling to think of when he wore the number 3 or 4.

It would only be a couple of times if he did.

He moved from right centre to the back row.
