The 21-year-old, who played for the Junior Wallabies in 2019, is looking to build off his five games for the club as he signs on for 2022.
“I’m really grateful for the opportunity to play for the Waratahs and represent NSW,” Robertson said.
“Playing for the Waratahs has always been a dream for me and to get the chance earlier this year was a proud moment for myself and my family.
“Playing that first game of Super Rugby made me even more motivated to work hard and put myself in the best position to be able to wear the Sky-Blue again next season.”

Waratahs assistant Chris Whittaker was pleased to see him return in sky blue, hoping he can push Jake Gordon and Jack Grant as they look to bounce back from a disappointing 2020 campaign.
“Robbo is the ultimate team man and a great asset to the Waratahs. His attitude and work ethic are second to none and he is consistently one of our best on the training paddock,” Whitaker said.
“He got his chance in Super Rugby earlier than we thought he would this season, and he proved he’s up to this level.
“I’ve been really impressed with his development since graduating from our Academy into the main squad.
“Robbo’s got a lot of potential and an incredibly bright future here at the Waratahs.”
