| Just what is going on with this guy? Seems to have just disappeared out of thin air, not even making the squads anymore. Is he playing in the under 20s? If so does he seem to be carrying an injury?
Its such a shame because there is a world class player inside him somewhere and I would love to see him ripping it up again in Super League like he was at the beginning of last year.

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

| It's been said time and time again. We all know he has it but the players in the team are playing well enough to stay there. He would need some injuries and to repeat the form from last year to stay at Wigan by the looks of things.
It's a shame IMO because Sam Tomkins is only fully effective from FB against the lesser teams. Amos was quality against the top sides from FB. We would be a better team with Sam at 6 and Amos at 1 IMO, ONLY if he was playing well enough to be there though.

| Massive confidence player. He looks very, very short of it at the moment.
I'd also question whether he's lost a step since the injury - I've not seen him flat out, but the way he carries himself certainly suggests this is the case.

End of 2012.
At the moment I reckon the club hope he's one of the many Wigan Aussies who want to end their contract early.

His broken field running is awesome, his fb positioning is very good too. He just hasn't looked himself since he got injured

How can you say he's awful? Had he not suffered an injury last year he'd of been close contender for MOS, simple as - At the moment I can't see any place for him in the Wigan side, which is a shame, because he's a good player.

the try he scores around 1:16 where he gives a wry smile to the defender shows he is definitely a confidence player. when he's in form and cruising with confidence he will do anything the likes of richards or sam can do.
i beleive MM will use him when he feels he is ready or can be of use to the squad. simply at present, there are enough players doing a more than good enough job of keeping him out of the team and thats all there is to it.

A close contender? He would have won it hands down. His performances in a Wigan shirt at fullback at the start of last season were outstanding.

| The thing is with Roberts is:
•the more he plays. Where his performances are good, the better a player he is
•the more he plays. Where his performances are poor, the worse he gets.
•the more games he doesn't play, the worse he gets.
So it's not just a case of playing him back into form, he has to be playing well to get better form.

that was a pretty long deal you signed him on then. You might have an opportunity to get shut if Widnes come sniffing, they will be looking for 'star' signings to boost season tickets and he certainly has a reputation. I've seen him play quite a few times live and on TV and he seems to go from the sublime to the ridiculous.. I've seen quite a few confidence players but he is extreme.

| To be honest I think Roberts should be shipped out on loan somewhere for a while. Pointless him messing about in the Under 20s, he gains nothing from that, he needs regular Super League games and at the moment I can't see anyone deserving to be dropped in the Wigan team.
Maybe Wakefield would be a good place for him to go, with them seemingly in the market for players. Option of recall if injuries get really bad here, would suit us.
