Johnston in 2015 or 2016?

Forgive me if im wrong but since he is off contract this year there has to be a chance of getting him mid-year, right? I mean Souths don't have to pay him out or anything and we can offer double money starting this year and beats him playing wing all year, or maybe in 2016, so if he has an adequate 2015 we may sit back and think whether to spend the money or not
Whats everyones thoughts, and if its been addressed I apologise

  • whats wrong with Johnston?, hes a talent
    however yes he did play in a crash hot souths team, so maybe better seeing how he goes this season

  • He certainly is talented, could be big things ahead for him.

  • Don't need him.

    Hoppa will prove that this year imo.

  • Im still a firm believer in Norman at 1, think he would thrive there, but do like hopoate enough to give him a shot

  • Norman has no X factor IMO.
    Norman Gunston yes.
    • Norman Gunston was on X Factor?
    • I wish, I'd watch it then.
  • Im waiting to see how hoppa goes first at fullback

  • I've said it before, let's have a look at this year. I know that we do sign players half a season to a season ahead. But seriously, we have a player in Hoppa at fullback who will impress big time. I watched training last year and this year. The difference with him last year was that last year he looked a bit out of place. New club, out of the game, no mates at training. This year, lots of talk, lots of laughs, looks sharp and relaxed. He addresses the players like a captain after training. Its a happy group of blokes at training. The competition when it's starts will be the real measuring stick but I can see a different group at training this year compared to last year.
