Shaun Johnson consolidated thread

[Papa Joe]

I see him more of a 6, I thought Broncos would have tied him up outside of Reynolds - I think that would be the right balance.

 

[COVENS]

Can we talk about the Sharks potential spine for a minute?

Lynne: blame des for overpaying players and backending contacts. it will take us 3 years to get out from this!
Also Lynne: back end liccha extension, overpay DWZ, sign/resign 20 players over an 18month period, still cry and whinge that des ruined the cap when you recycled through 75% of it anyway

btw no way DWZ is on that money

 

[Mattreneeandgus]

Nope. A touch football specialist in defence & attack & to fragile. We need a game manager if we are going to get another half.

If the game keeps going the way it is, will be touch footy soon, might be a good buy, get ahead of the game

 

[Bulldogs09]

lol 880k ffs so glad it’s 1 year left. We can afford anyone then!

Oh also tigers
Took mbye I’m sure they will dwz

F*** me, relax.. don’t believe everything you read and in the remote chance it is true, it’s hardly setting us back 3yrs. TB is cleaning out and there will be some solid announcements by seasons end. Patience all.

SJ has still got the goods, he’s got 2 good years in him, it wouldn’t be a band aid at all, would be great for the rebuild, attract players also. TBAZ should seriously consider this, and Dufty too .!$!

Fox
SJ
Dufty

right there is lots of points and great attack.

Right there goes our salary cap and no dosh left for a hooker and forward...unless flanagan is moved on that would be a foolish move by the club

 

[steveng]

No thanks

[sgodllubsti]

[no1bulldog]

No fucking way, has one good game a year this is a west tigers type signing

All the past few Boards have been very poor, in one way or another and we are where we are thanks to all of them.

The extent of our demise has not been greatly exaggerated.

 

[Turvey Chip and Chase]

Dufty
Burton
Johnson
Smith

I have to admit, That’s a very good spine

 

[the12thman]

I don't know who the club is gonna sign but I have a feeling it will all fall into place quickly when it happens.

Until then we will have to deal with all the rumours and uncertainty.

All one needs to read to know how much trust there can be in this article.

Seriously, Baz wouldn't have a bar of Benji to teach our halves...why the hell would he contemplate an aging running half who's best skills are curbed by a recent achilles injury?

And Dal...nice agenda driven section there. Price is now up to $880k (really?), and he's just a winger (eventhough he's played FB most of the year).

I really despise this hack.

I agree.

You always wonder though, Baz obviously thought Flanno could cut it. If he knew our halves would struggle as they have, and If he could have his time all over again would he have made a play for Benji?

And does it through his halves plans out the window.

We all know Burton is a lock next season for one of the roles. And then what?

So if TB is committed to give Flanagan another shot, why bother with SJ? wouldn't that be counterintuitive?

 

[Spoonman84]

If you could get Johnson for under $500k which I know is pretty unlikely it would be a smart bit of recruitment.

He brings much needed experience into our halves and we have Flanangan and Averillo waiting in the wings that could fill in when Johnson is injured.

I think its a massive concern running with such rookie halves next year and a veteran in Johnson solves that issue.
