Roberts posted 22 in Sydney's 8-point win over North Melbourne — 36 below his 58 BE, visibly hampered, covering ground poorly for a winger. He is managing groin soreness and is looking at 2-4 weeks on the sidelines. Sydney win by 8 — this was not garbage time suppression, this was an injured player running on empty. Sell this week before the price tanks.
