I thought that he absolutely out paced him and thewlis has a reputation as a flyer

Anyone who’s watched TJ last year and this would know he hasn’t lost and speed. Not sure why anyone would think that in the first place. TJ should be hitting his best form over this next few years.

Did anyone watch the France game? How did TJ play ? I read that he scored two tries but nothing else

I watched it and him and Wellsby were the two standouts.

Didn’t make a single mistake

Defended a 2 v 1 successfully

Nothing got past him all game
Scored 2 try’s

Set up Wellsby for his try after a good run and offload

Carved through 6 players and sent a wonder pass to set up Handley try

He practically pulled England from 0-8 nil behind to being in the lead.

The left edge was potent. The right edge of Handley and Newman got targeted early by France and leaked yards and try. That edge made a few knock ons with plays breaking down etc too.

There were a few players that shouldn’t get in again for a while like Newman, Nicholson who are nowhere near ready. The pack was very poor all game and didn’t get on top hardly at all.

Between Wellsby, Johnstone and Lewis that’s where most of the damage was done.

But apart from that he did nothing else though.

Improvement needed. Guess we will still take him next season though.

I've heard that he also served tea at half time.

And he's already completed his Euro 2024 sticker book

He'd be an improvement on some of the England football team too !

Stand in England coach Andy last heaped special praise on Johnstone for the quality of his performance and the extras he did in the game

Special player.Unbelievable having Tom back next season and all to play for for the right wing spot.

Johnstone plays on the left wing spot ever since his debut.

But yes, he’s my favourite all time Trinity player so I’m very happy to see him back where he belongs.
