He can do everything that mamo does and is probably cheaper on the cap. Feel sorry for him his injury just came at the wrong time for his career.

Best wishes to him I hope he gets back to superleague in the future.

Spot on CW8

On very limited viewing I think Mamo edges it in attack particularly for speed but Johnson has the upper hand as an all rounder definitely better under a high ball and with a bit of luck injury/coach wise should have had more first team game time particularly ahead of Russell

I remember him catching Matty's balls v Widnes away the game after the clattering and thought then he was a better option

I always hope for the best for any youngster coming through. The odds are massively against them making it after many years of dedication so I appreciate how crushing it must be to be shipped out. Good luck Jack.

Good luck to him. A good lad who has had horrendous luck with injury. Wish him well and hope he can perhaps work his way back up to Super League one day.

Will he be a big loss though? Really, in all honesty, he won’t be. He was decent cover, at best. He needs to play, he wants to play and he’s not going to get the game time he needs at a club challenging near the top end of the league.

Once again, all the best to him, but can’t help but think there’s a bit of an overreaction in the fact we’re letting him go. There’s plenty of things to beat ourselves up over at the minute, but don’t think this is one of them.

People moaning about this should remember we used to have the few world class products we brought through our academy bought for world record fees by the likes of saints and Leeds. Johnson looked like a decent player to me when he first came through, but he's ended up at featherstone. It isn't a loss to us one bit, but good luck to the lad.

He's an ok Player not a world beater by any means so not really a big deal. Hasn't he only gone til the end of the season on loan anyway?

The way I read it - he's gone for good. Good luck to him but it is in Warrington's best interests. At 23 he's no longer a kid who's going to develop, he's 2nd choice behind Mamo as cover for wing / fullback.

Next season we will have two marquee halfbacks, a top class hooker, 2 decent starting props, a good fullback and wingers and, if Currie can regain some of his pre-injury form, we're ok at 2nd row. Where we are short is in our interchange and reserve props, loose forward / 3rd prop and a question mark over Burrell's ability to make the transition from Union to League. If we are going to fill those gaps we need space against the salary cap so young players who haven't set the world on fire and club servants in the twilight of their careers will need to make way.

We need better youngsters. Where Wigan and Saints have succeeded, and where we have failed, is that those clubs have been able to recruit and develop Super League quality players and enjoy the benefits of having them play at top level for one season at bargain basement level wages. If you can manage that with one player each year then you have effectively gained an extra player on the cap.

Indeed no offence to Johnson but no need for any uproar here. If we're moving him on in order to free up space for the forward we desperately need then great business.

Do not see the problem here. He isn't good enough and never will be.

He has gone, is there any need to stick the boot in?

Absolutely NOT

Clearing the decks.
JJ Atkins Sita next.

The problem here for me is, is Mamo and VFM? Unless it's part of some master plan to free up probably not a lot of cap space for a forward recruit

Me thinks it's more likely to give an upgrade of a contract to another youngster.

Where all the good people go
