We need a centre. I like Johnston as a player but we have other areas we need to strengthen.

Nah, how about we target a big strong fast winger...like the ones the Eels have. Why we do always go for slow or small wingers. lets try and get the best of both worlds

agree, he isnt a centre, and we desperately need a top line centre, 7 and hooker. alternatively if hoppa plays centre then a top line 1.

On the wing at a good price I think it strengthens the team.

At the right price he wouldn’t be a bad signing. We obviously need fixing in other positions but we have Harper leaving, Holland, Tass, Katoa and Montoya off contract so we do need outside backs. Again at the right price, nothing wrong with some healthy competition between Johnson, Smith and DWZ for wing spots. He is certainly a better option to push those other guys than resigning some of the above mentioned off contract players.

Sign him and get him here this season, way better than any backline option we have at the minute. Then we won’t need to worry about JAC as he is off to the rabbits, everyone in the NRL knows this!

Get him here now, hes better than any fullback we have had in a long time and can run. Ffs. Hoppa and dallin hsve to be the centres now get a top hooker. It aint that hard. Alex is perfect till we get that gun fullback and there is none available at minute, hes way better than mitchell. Dam this club is slow

1 Averillo
2 DWZ
3 Hoppa
4 Cotric
5 Johnson

I like the look of that backline. Good blend of speed, experience and ability to get us out of our own half. Reimis and Meaney need a kick up the ass and a season in NSW Cup. If we could afford Cotric and JAC, than I'd obviously prefer that!

Johnston should sign with Newcastle and play left wing and move Edrick butter fingers Lee to the right so their left edge (Pongas prefered side is more potent; Pearce, Mann/Hoy, Ponga, Fitzgibbon, Best, Johnston is pretty handy.

Even Manly could use him as Tafua is getting on and would be good cover for Turbo

Would be a massive improvement on what we have. If floppa and dwz are now first and second choice, it means that pay’s star recruit meaney has officially flopped.

so much better than Crichton and Meaney. Meaney is not a winger .
