Yeah, if you didn't get sunburnt, you weren't at the footy.

Chipper was the player that i idolised after that game, I am pretty sure he kicked the first and third goals of that game!!!

surely not!its hard to judge without being in the ineer sanctum, but unless we get something worth while in return we have lost a very good player, one of my favourites! because he is hard at the ball and he can create with his run! ever since his kicking improved he has been irreplaceable! i dont think there is any truth in it tho, as Mick was the one and only coach who woudl have given johno a chance! He would be the player he is today without mick, he owes him to stay! Not many coaches woudl have persisted with a player that couldnt kick and was not accountable, he has however come full circle and woudl be a great loss

Johnson is one of only 3 players to have supported Collingwood growing up (Carrots and Chad are the others). His hero was Brown and was given the number 26. I love the way he plays and hope he stays. If not we would be forced to trade him for peanuts compared to what he was worth last year and especially the year before.
