Tyrone Roberts is looking forward to Jarryd Hayne’s return from injury to the NRL even if it means he’s relegated to the bench for the Gold Coast’s clash against Cronulla.

Gold Coast will take on the third-placed Sharks in Sydney and Roberts says the addition of Hayne would boost morale.

“It’ll be good to see him back, at this stage we need a bit of confidence and he can bring that to the team,” Roberts said.
