I genuinely believe he didn’t have much idea what was going on on the field, didn’t have a plan ahead of catching and running which also made him illusive and unpredictable.

At least he made it to the NRL and he was exceptionally good when he wanted to be and he knew how to find the tryline and unfortunately i have noticed in newspapers lately he's been in abit of trouble well he's most probably in some ways affected by his childhood the apple NEVER falls far from the tree 🌲 unfortunately and I hope that Mr James Roberts ends up getting his Life in some type of ordering balance 💯 percent 👍
