I think it was dumb signing Johnson. He is inconsistent and too much coin for what he offers.
Johnson - 0.6 Line break assists per game which ranks 17th in the NRL
Flanno Jnr - Not in top 50 and less than Xerri and Chad.
Johnson - Leads the club with 48 points
Flanno Jnr - Leads the club in goals (19) but is kicking at 67%
Johnson - 4.5 runs per game for average of 39m
Flanno Jnr - 2.9 runs per game for average of 21m
Johnson - 2.3 tackle busts per game
Flanno jnr - 0.9 tackle busts per game
In fact, in virtually every stat SJ is out playing Flanno Jnr despite SJ being 'badly out of form' and Flanno Jnr having 'blinders'.
The reality is that when Flanno Jnr was starting he had very little involvement in games, allowing Chad to direct the play.
