That's very kind of them and there is no chance of that happening but keep dreaming luv

In all honesty 12 months ago everybody was mionitoting Johnstone. I think some even tried to put in an offer but it was swiftly rejected without question.

Quite right too. He’s the best player to come out of the ranks in many years.

One SL club did put an offer in for TJ lat year - so I heard, but it wasn't Leeds.

Leeds will sign him for free when he’s OOC.

Well it won't be in the next 2 year then as your mate implied.HTH

Well thats a four year wait and a few lost yards of pace - so good luck on that one tee hee

Three I'm told no idea who - but a long term deal saw that one off.

It's not just that Trinity aren't a selling club anymore we also go to great length to sign the kind of players who honour their contracts. If you want to go then go if you want to stay then you stay for a long time - we value you, you value us - simple.

Leeds will have been monitoring him as you would expect about any young player making waves in SL but don't think we had any real plans to move for him or any other winger whilst Briscoe and Hall are still under contract. Both of them are OOC at the end of 2018, reckon Hall will stay but we could replace Briscoe. That could mean making a move for Johnstone (which may not be accepted) or go for somewhere else. After a serious injury any club that had their eye on Johnstone will want to see how he returns first before renewing any potential interest.

Leeds have put their faith in Ash Handley who’s a good winger and finisher but doesn’t have the match turning speed that Tom Johnston possesses. Their other young winger, Reece Chapman-Smith, who did have real pace has suffered a couple of serious injuries and the juries out on how that’ll affect his progress.

Hopefully the young winger pulls through. Don’t think anybody likes to hear of a young player suffering bad injurires or any for that matter.

That's a big statement vastman my luv
Although i'm not quite sure how much control you actually have over stopping this transfer ever occurring should the Rhinos come in for TJ that makes you so categorical to state that it has no chance of ever happening?

Perhaps you could elaborate on your influence on this matter luv

We haven't put faith in Ash Handley, he's just a backup winger and not sure he'll be at Leeds much longer than 2018.

You say Wakefield aren't a selling club anymore but there isn't any real evidence to back this up in terms of a big club coming in hard for one of your best players. Every player at ANY SL club has their price and all Johnstone's new contract means is that a potential buying club would have to splash out more. You can't honestly say Wakey would turn down ANY price, the question would be if any club is prepared to pay big money for Johnstone.

You really don't know what your talking about - so far we've blocked Warrington signing Jowitt - numerous clubs after Johnstone whilst Fifita was a big target for a number of SL clubs how much do you need.

Nobody can stop a player who wants to leave from leaving and that includes your mighty Leeds. We accept that. The difference now is that Wakefield are not actively looking to sell and where possible are matching what other clubs are offering within reason.

Yes we have limitations but we sure as hell make it difficult for the parasite clubs these days.
