Terrible news for Wests Tigers fans as star player James Roberts has announced that he is leaving for a new opportunity with another NRL club. Roberts, known for his speed and try-scoring ability, confirmed his departure during a press conference today, expressing gratitude to the Tigers and their supporters for their support throughout his time at the club.
“I have made the difficult decision to leave the Wests Tigers,” Roberts stated. “I am thankful for the experiences and memories here, but I feel it’s time for a new challenge and opportunity.”
Speculation is swirling about which NRL club Roberts will join next, with several teams reportedly interested in acquiring the services of the talented center. His departure leaves a significant gap in the Tigers’ backline, as he has been a key player for the team in recent seasons.
“I will always cherish my time with the Tigers and the relationships I’ve built,” Roberts added. “I am looking forward to the next chapter in my career and the challenges that lie ahead.”
Roberts’ decision to leave will undoubtedly be a major topic of discussion among NRL fans and within the Tigers community, who now face the task of moving forward without one of their star players.
