Andrew Johns

[Ryan]

I understand the Trbojevic's are sitting down with Joey Johns to add value for his show. I don't know guys, is it just me in thinking "**** him" for doing everything in his power to get Mitchell Pearce to reneg. on his Manly deal to sign with his Newcastle, and for that reason, he isn't worth a pint of piss?

Jake and Tom Trbojevic enjoyed sitting down with Immortal, Andrew Johns, in Manly this week. Look out for the interview on @wwos pre-game coverage from 3pm today on Nine. #WeAreManly

I agree Ryan, but it's not only that this goose who they have immortalised was on illicit drugs for years while playing in the NRL. Had he been a "no name" he would have been rubbed out of the game. Lot's of players have been rubbed out for less.

I don't like the bloke and I wish he wasn't associated with our club.

I'm still more pi**ed off with his blindside sneak to steal the 97 GF personally !!
The pearce saga had far more to do with the Greenburg and NRL anti Manly than Johns tbh....that's what cost his signature more so than Johns....but ....happy to support your hate on him along with any outsider today!!
Bring on those Slimy worms!!

If he could string an intelligent set of questions it might be worth it just to see the twin turbos.
He just wants to be associated with the next big thing.

Considering he p*ssed off out of Newcastle because he couldn't stand the fishbowl lifestyle and then sold how great it is to Mitchell Pearce is somewhat hypocritical.

Could be mate, I reckon players don't take these things as personally as we do.

And bring back the biff.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Agree with globaleagle: the players see things differently than we do. Don't forget he was on the Manly coaching staff for a while. He also lives in the area, so the players would have their own relationship with him.

He was a drugo who received (along with Brad Fittler) preferential treatment. But he was some player.

Looking for the positives:
To air Sunday afternoon free to air on Nine before the game. Exposure for our cub and sponsors is a plus.

Any increase in profile of these fine players also potentially brings more TPA opportunities = less cap pressure on the club.

And I also recall Johns often talking up the boys from his time as halves coach at the Sea Eagles, Tom in particular.

Looks like the line

To be fair he has wrapped turbo since day dot.
