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.

"I mean sure, but Richo is at times a bit of a lone ranger. He could work with Ryles well.
But you have a point on wasting time as the longer we wait the closer we are to 2027 and need to set up the roster."

"Ryley looks injured. If he is give him a spell. Tds is the only other option.  Pezet is too slow and a deadset liability in defence which made Kelly look worse than what he is. Should never have been brought here. Papa was improving week on week.…"
