He was just hooked because he was crap all season and you want him back?

Shaun Johnson is about to get the biggest reeming by the Sydney media, just watch. Hope he packed some lube when he departed for Aus.

He didn't engage the line once that I can remember in 80mins of football. Couple times he got caught in a terrible position and tackled, but not taking on the line. Pretty bad for a million dollar man, even if he is carrying an injury they have Flanno so he shouldn't be playing.

Shaun Johnson getting shredded on the Sharks forum, a few sticking up for him for his kicking game but most saying they need to get rid of him.

His kicking game was actually quality, bar that very last one that wasn't terrible but abit pointless. But other than that it was his usual shovel it on performance.

Didn’t watch it but what was the reaction after he was hooked??? I recall he wasn’t happy when Matt Elliot hooked him during the Panthers game and suspect it would be similar!

No I’m pretty sure the Shaun Johnson we all know and love deals incredibly well with being put under pressure by his coach and club.
Actually come to think of it Sharks fans don’t worry he’ll be announcing his move to the Super League on Tuesday morning...

Haha - “he’s never been the same since the broken leg in 2015”.Some got grumpy when they dared to suggest that before.
Apparently they needed some bone to graft onto the leg to fix it and they took it straight out of his skull and knicked a bit of his frontal lobe to boot.
His kicks are incredibly intelligent now.
Everything else

If Flanno wasn't going to be suspended for kneeing Lodge in the head, I honestly reckon Shaun Johnson might have found himself in reserve grade for the first time in his career. Bit gutted because would have been really interesting to see if Morris would have pulled the trigger. Not just that hes been playing terrible, they need someone to kick goals and Flanno is the only one that can.

it wasnt just that he was hooked, it was that the game was on the line with 10 mins(?) left and they benched him. You know one of those moments when you want your absolute best on the field, only 2 points in it etc...
There was a passage of play I remember where he was doing his usual run it across the face of the defending team, heading slowly to the side line and by they time he got there, he had run himself into a cordon of 3-4 sharks players and he just stood there and let them walk him over the side line. He never even tried to fight or get to ground. He was looking for an offload the whole time and just kept running past people. He looked totally defeated, like he had no idea at all what to do. He didnt even try anything. This was some time before he was hooked but i dont remember when.
