Zion Johnson? Anyone know him

The Parramatta Eels have continued their raid of the Queensland Cup.

Sunshine Coast falcons winger Zion Johnson has signed a deal to join the Eels next year. Johnson managed 17 tries in 22 appearances for the Falcons who made it to the Grand Final.

Zion’s good form saw him be picked as part of the Fiji World Cup Squad.

Zion has signed a train and trial deal so will need to go out and prove himself. At 25 Zion has plenty of experience and clearly knows how to find the try line!!

  • Looks like another signing by the Ex storm coach,  as the falcons are a Storm feeder club

  • Guessing gonna be cup winger. But wondering what it will mean for the likes of Rokosuka/Vaivela. 

    I imagine our Cup will be Nanva - Samrani plus this Johnson block and maybe a Schiller? That's not too bad if you add a decent fullback to it. 

    • Hope they give Bamblett the cup fullback spot. Devote can leave now. Don't rate him. Roksuka will start the year in JF and get a chance if he develops well. Bloomfield and Sorovi will be pushing too.

      Alamadine is on a dev deal next year too 

      • Ah Alemaddine is staying. 

  • I will protect a mate that is heavily involved with his current Club and had a lot to do with this kid. He tells me this kid, has great speed, awesome defence, is a great finisher and has an infectous personality. Sounds very promising!

    • I like these type of signing. This kid looks good from his highlight reel

  • If he was taller I'd love love this signing.

    • This kid has something.  Watch the q cup gf. Has plenty of skill , quick and jumping ability 

      • As per my post Chief. This comes from a former colleague that is now heavily involved with the Falcons and this kid personally. Potential galore!

        • This 'kid' is 25. Would have thought he'd be well into an NRL career if he had that much potential. Perhaps he's a Cody Walker, late bloomer?

"Without a doubt this is a depth signing, with the club hoping the conveyor belt starts for the outside backs over the next couple of years. This is the right call."
