Two clubs talking to Luis Johnson according to his agent. One Super League, one Championship.

Haven't seen anything in Johnson to suggest he's any better than we have. Would rather give Scott. Jebson or Staverly a chance rather than blocking there path

Totally agree.

Don’t get what people have seen in him.

Much rather give our young 2nd rowers a chance.

Johnson would be no more than a squad player, we need a starter not another squad filler.

I'd have him as he's better than we've got now but that's setting a low bar.

We need a quality starting SR but is there anyone available who isn't already contracted.

Johnson would be an upgrade on Lane. Lane is more of a blocker to your squad players breaking through.

Your second rows are championship standard at best. Thinking about it he’d be head and shoulders your best option.

To start the season I’d go with

Walker
McIntosh
Tuimavave
Sutcliffe
Tindall
Hoy
Brown

Sao
Houghton
Ese’ese
Okunbor
Scott
Fash

Smith
Ashworth
Pele
Plus whoever out the small/younger forwards performs in pre season.

Once Trueman is back, Nu to 13, Fash to bench.

If Cator, Lane or J Brown are to play then they need to be on merit rather just because they are more experienced than the younger forwards.

Cator is an interesting one, I recall he was very well recieved when he first came in and before he did his achilles the first time. Not sure if it was because he played better, had a team around him that better suited his attributes or we were so bad that a high work rate made him look amazing. Or perhaps a combination of all of them.
As it is currently, I agree with you in that we need more in that position.


Only see Cator in matches televised here in Aus so only a handful in recent seasons. Have a special interest in watching him as I am loosely related to him by marriage of my sister's eldest daughter. Believe his contract is up at the end of next season- should he be retained?
You mentioned Achilles injury. Last year in June I caught my foot in a hole on a bush walk and in falling tore my Archilles tendon. Bloody painful for months and still gives me grief today but at age 85 can still walk reasonably long distances so cannot complain.
