Kane Johnson

[Wally Matera]

Is anyone concerned about the abysmal disposal of Kane Johnson. He has been nothing short of downright ordinary in his foot skills, and, after watching yesterday's game... l dont have any confidence that he can hit a target (5 metres in front of him) by hand.

He gets the footy sooo much, but he is fast turning into another (Joel). Every Monday, he must cringe seeing his "error" tapes, because all he's error's seem to be so costly... always end in goals to the opposition.

Fiora is another one... but l havent got the time to start on him.

However, a positive is Krak-daddy! How good was that pass to Richo in the third quarter!!!

you must have missed in particular his 2 gems when it mattered most.other than that i agree his disposal has been a worry very unlike him i must say.
it was mentioned last year that the telstra dome is pretty tough on his body and playing 4 on the trott this year may contribute to his sloppy disposal this year.

cheers!

Hes still getting plenty of it,but l reckon he is carrying a minor leg or groin injury that affects his kicking.
I say this because he normally is sure footed but has been terrible the last few weeks.

The bright side

The bright side:

With Cogs out and Johnno struggling a bit...we're still winning.

Word is that his back has been playing up all year and he is struggling to front up for games. Let's keep our fingers crossed that he can hold up until Cogs gets back onto the park.

As for his disposal, I think he's certainly far from being our worst....there's a long queue ahead of him IMO.

Is it Johnson or is it us?

When we picked him up, the good Adelaide folk all seemed in agreeance that his kicking was impeccable. Maybe they have a better emphasis on skills at Adelaide?

i rekon this bloke is a little overrated, plyed in 2 grandf inals but on his own in the group does not relaly shine as others make out

leave him alone, its so bl00dy obvious he has a back problem and he is still finding the ball, and its not like every kick is a shocker to no one, its a few but the toehr kicks find the target lace out.

Isn't Johnson not fully fit? I do recall seeing him have his lower back massaged at one stage during the game on Sunday. I think I also heard something about a sore back.
