Jamie Roberts (born 8 November 1986) is a Welsh international rugby union footballer currently playing for Cardiff Blues in the Pro12 league. He also plays for the Wales and the British and Irish lions. Roberts' position of choice is as a centre.
Roberts represented Wales at all levels between Under 16s and Under 19s, and once again for the Under 21s. He was part of the Under 21s team which won the Six Nations Grand Slam in 2005. During the 2005–06 season, he represented Cardiff RFC. He played eleven times and scored five tries. In the 2006–07 season, he picked up a shoulder injury but recovered to play 17 times and score 10 tries for his amateur club.
With players away at the 2007 Rugby World Cup, Roberts called up to play for the Cardiff Blues, making his debut against the Ospreys. The Blues won 17–15 in the first Magners League match to have a video referee. In the next two matches against the Dragons and Glasgow Warriors, he scored three tries, one against the former and two against the latter. This form led to continual selection for the Blues and led to selection in the Welsh squad for the Six Nations.
