I expect one big speccy and one goal from the middle of the ground with 5 bounces (will probably hit the post though!)...

Well done Chris!

And from an old Royboy who fondly remembers Johnno's many speccies of 94, 95, 96, congrats! For a while I didn't think you'd make it up there...certainly glad you stayed around. Go Lions, Go Johnno, hoping you have a Huge One on Thursdee night!

Easily the most talented player in Fitzroy's 1996 team. It's amazing the influence one person can have on a person's life. Well played Chris Johnson. Well done Leigh Matthews.

Just think, we may have all missed out on seeing this brilliant career. There's nobody else like him in the comp.

Absolutely amazing how he either steps round, ducks under or just runs straight through would-be tacklers.

It used to make my nerves jangle when he did that, but now I expect him to do it several times a game and just relax when Johnno takes off.

True champ.

A couple of years ago I used to cringe when he took off out of the backline because often he would turn the ball over with poor disposal and be stranded out of position as the ball was rebounded back quickly to an unmarked opponent.

Not any more!! His searching runs are now invariably finished off with a pinpoint pass. He has become so damaging off the backline that some teams specifically tag him. Now that's a huge compliment to his effectiveness and impact on a game.

Congratulations CJ, I hope you have a game to remember.

Great to see 2 Fitzroy champs Lynchy and Pikey chairing Kinza off the ground after the game. Great Kodak moment.
