The Sydney University Rugby Club 2012 season preview described him thus: "His strengths are his composure, speed of foot and long kicking game. Gus is quite a big 10 and has only been playing the position for a year now, to which he has already caught the eye of the Super Franchises. Gus has some silky skills and a great deal of potential, which he has worked hard on during the off season to develop."[1]
He scored a last minute try and conversion that won the Sydney University the 2012 Shute Shield.[5]
Super Rugby
Roberts commenced in a two-year contract with the Melbourne Rebels in 2013.[4][6][7] In March 2013, the Rebels named Roberts at fullback for the Round 4 battle with the Reds in Melbourne.[8][9] This was to be his Super Rugby and Rebels debut.[8][10][11]
