Matthew Johns shows his class.

Matt wrote an acorticle this morning in the Telegraph titled "A PUNCHY NSW REPLY."                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   He covered Madge's dig at Slater and then went on to surprise with his insight of the coming duel between the centres in the upcoming origin. Have a look.

  • Sorry guys just had a visit from an electrician to do a replacement wall socket so the power had to be stopped for 10 minutes. The appeal of the story was not just Johns knowledge of the intricasies of the match-ups but the picturres he painted in your mind of the skirmishes to come. Matt has just elevated himself to a higher level in my mind.

  • Definitely a classy guy, always brings wipes to a GB.

LB replied to Coryn Hughes's discussion R and R restore some faith.
"Exactly Coryn, his position versatility is too good to pass up. He can play in the halves, Lock, Hooker, Centre. He is also 3 years younger. So instead of hoping Walker plays on and worry about replacing him, get Watson for 3 years, no worries of…"

"True. But if he can stay fit, which of course you can't predict, he is a damn fast threat. You watch his highlights it's 90% him setting up his winger. Which is good. Plus warriors have Ali playing good footy so they might be likely to let Rocco go."
