I agree its a good move for both parties . its not working
But its also one where Warrior fans could end up watching on with a bit of disappointment , got the feeling SJ could get himself into a different environment and go to a different level ,
Like the ex girlfriend who looks so much hotter after she leaves you .
Players rarely get better at his age

That’s true , it’s almost like he needs a new role,
A freewheeling 6 rather than a playmaking 7 , behind a dominant pack , he will slice you up ,
I think a club who has that pack, and the 7 already , could look at him as a bit of icing on the cake , without that pack , probably a waste of time

He's like Benji-lite. Got all the fancy moves but yet to deliver on the big stage at the right time (unlike Benji)

It's official. Shaun Johnson joins Cronulla on a 3 year deal
-
pretty divisive player from fan POV.
Been a big topic on Radio Sport obviously, plenty in support of the Warriors getting rid of him, plenty thought it was handled poorly, but I think majority thought the end result is best all round.

It frees up cap space and that is more important than having Shaun Johnson on the roster. Although they finished only two points behind first place, anyone who watched them all season long could tell it was still a seriously flawed roster.
SJ should do alright at the Sharks but they look to be in trouble both in terms of the salary cap (which they have apparently breached already) and financially. Don't think SJ sees out his three years there tbh.

haha, some comments on FB following the Sharks announcement...

The speed of that signing suggests it was well planned before he handed in his resignation

Or his negotiation window for 2020 opened up in November so he would have known the shortlist of interested teams and the framework for some potential deals.

@act-crusader If Seibold doesn't win the comp for the Broncos, Bennett's legacy is only enhanced.

Not sure why. They haven't won for ages, and with Bennett were never going to win it.

@mariner4life Seriously, what has Akira got to do with this, it's not even close to being analogous?
I'm not a fan of SJ and reckon they should have got rid of him years ago, however the comments by George (which are a bit sooky) in the press conference have pissed off a bunch of Warriors fans. What they could have done differently is not made those comments which pissed off those fans.
which quotes do you take exception to?
*(Delayed response due to a conference) I didn't personally take exception to many, I just think the Warriors could have handled it better (not pissing off some of their die hards, not me, clearly I'm in a continual state of pissed off with them
).I think @raznomore got it right with his comments above, just thanks and we wish you all the best for the future.
