Neither would I.

But I wouldn't do it if it meant 'salary cap pressure'.

This guy was booted out of cellar dwellar Melbourne.

He goes missing in heavy traffic and becomes a turnover merchant.

Down hill skier at best.

Avoid like the plague unless we are looking to bolster the Sandy team.

I hope they do as it will plummet them down the ladder.

I agree with you, but I wonder if that has as much to do with the culture at the brions and it seems to me that Voss is not though of to highly.

If he was picked up late with out missing out on any kids then he may be worth a punt. RL may be able to get a bit out of him.

I honestly can't see how Travis fits in with where the Saints need to go.

Too many current players need to be given opportunities as it is. We've seen the Saints topping up for four years, if the talent doesn't emerge from within the ranks then forget it, it's time to focus on the future.

Not saying we should get Johnson but it is about now for our club. Because of decisions made for the last few years we are going to bottom out very quickly in 3-4 years time. i would be worrying about winning the flag and then we bottom out. its the only way up IMO.

He is a very good player on his day and suffers for being no 1 draft pick.

Rumour on bigfooty, that Ross was seen having a coffee with Chris Johnson today?

Said to have good kicking skills, something we lack somewhat?

Does JABBER like him?
That should be the final decider.

Johnstone has been delisted.

Wouldnt be the worst second hand player we'd picked up.

Ahead of Birss, Gardiner, Peake, Patterson....



f*** it just get him. At least he can kick.

Not ahead of Peake.

Some people forget very easily. Lots of people were really impressed with him during the season. Lots of players played a poor grandfinal.
Should we claim that Johnstone is better than Roo?
