Even the greatest players have down seasons. Whether that be to a point they lose their spot, or just don't quite live up to their previous performances.

Below we look at 10 players who probably didn't have the 2020 they expected, whom I fully expect to bounce back in a big way.

We've left rookies off who are obviously expected to improve as they continue in their development.

2. James Roberts

The Jet suffered a horror 2020 season that will best be remembered for injuries and off-field distractions. He, like fellow new Tiger Joe Ofahengaue, will benefit in a HUGE way with a change of club.

Roberts, who has reportedly re-found his love for the game, is looking fit and fast and should become a major cog in the Tiger machine.

If there's one player I could guarantee a huge 2021 from this list it is Roberts. He's a magnificent player when in full flight. I have no doubt 2021 is the comeback year we all hope for.
