Roberts bound to keep Titans busy

JAMES Roberts has often been chief destroyer in Broncos-Titans derbies since moving up the M1 for the 2016 season and an ex-Gold Coast teammate says there’s just one way to stop him.

During his two years on the Gold Coast, Roberts (pictured) often teamed up with Anthony Don on the right flank.

Don, who has urged players to repay fans after a horror 54-8 Round 3 loss to the Dragons, said “Jimmy the Jet” warranted the entire team’s attention.

“He has the skill and is lightning fast, so it’s not one man’s responsibility (to defend him), we have to do it as a whole team,” Don said.

“He can either skin people on the outside or he can bounce back to the middle, like he did against the Cowboys, and go straight through the middle.”

Roberts, understandably, has been a name commonly mentioned at training this week, with extra video sessions on the centre also arranged.

Don predicted Roberts would let his former teammates know if the Broncos again win the derby clash.

“He loves having a joke and a laugh,” Don said.

The Round 4 match will start at 6.30pm on Easter Sunday.
