James Roby (born November 22, 1985 in Whiston) is a rugby league player who plays for St. Helens RFC.

Roby made his debut in 2004 against the Widnes Vikings after progressing through the academy ranks at St. Helens RFC. He usually plays as a hooker and has plenty of experience already, playing alongside some of the greats of the game including Keiron Cunningham. Roby has made a massive impact for St. Helens and has played over 50 games for them.

In Super League X, James was narrowly beaten to the Young Player of The Year. St. Helens RFC see James as one of the brighter prospects and he seems a perfect replacement for Keiron Cunningham when he retires, so much so that St. Helens were willing to allow Mickey Higham to leave the club and Roby was given a more active role in the team.

James was an integral part of the St. Helens side that defeated the Huddersfield Giants in the 2006 Challenge Cup and has been awarded with his performances this season by being called up to the Tri Nations squad and making his international debut during the tour against Australia and New Zealand.

James attended Cowley High School from 1997 - 2002 then went on to the Sixth Form.
