How could it catch him by surprise. He's not playing, training and leaving the country. He doesn't get paid for that.

I'm leaning it towards it not being a surprise and just media twisting things like usual.

60k is a bit of a whack, you think you'd stick around and earn it, even if you're just rehabbing.

JOHNSON'S SOUR $60K SNUB FROM SHARKS

Kiwi superstar Shaun Johnson enjoyed three fairly successful seasons at the Sharks - but his parting from the club this week was anything but amicable.

Johnson is returning home to New Zealand early after injury finished his 2021 campaign, flying out tomorrow.

But Johnson was hoping the Sharks would pay him the final month of his contract - around $60,000 - before he left.

He got a rude shock when the club refused to cough up the money, and I'm hearing he is going home far from a happy boy as a result.

this is from the mole

Hopefully they are actually allowed to do it and it isn't another thing that blows up in our faces.

Just sold up his house in the Shire…. I’m sure he’ll scrape by.

Good to see some spine in the sharks for once. If he is such a genuine bloke he should realise if he is t there to support the club and offer advice and experience then he can f**k off and not expect to get paid.
