I`d play him when he has actually earned his place, he has not exactly `shone`since his arrival......very average for the most part. It`s a whole lot different playing for the Broncos than it is when surrounded by class players in the NRL.

Robertson is a great finisher but he needs other players to create chances for him. Broncos is a team full of players who dont know how to pass so he will never look great until he has at least a decent centre inside him.

Play him in centre
just cut out the crap going forward and just give it to the decent players.

Completely agree... Robertson NEEDS decent support players to fulfill his true potential.

Exactly.

You can create this by moving him to fullback to allow him to roam and find the ball. Look at past examples with many NRL fullbacks who graduated from centre/wing positions. (Not comparing him to Inglis or Hayne, just how this opened their games up at their respective clubs).

Dorn may bag a few tries but he has been playing some ordinary footy. I feel he is used now in short bursts off the bench.

Robertson was an excellent fill in at Manly at FB while Stewart was out.

If you're centres arent good enough to pass it to their wingers. Then why bother with them apart from tradition,

Move Robertson next to the 2nd rower in attack, stick him on wing for defending

Some comments a bit harsh on Robertson, imo. He was our joint top try scorer last year and has only played once this year when he wasn't 100%.

Give the bloke a chance, I say.

You sir, have been hired as this forum's main fortune teller.

Anthony Rea (aka "Tony Ray") must have read your posting.

After the game at Castleford we now know where Michael Robertson will play!
