Juffaricho said:Not sure about that. At the moment Johnson's so called "experience and leadership" is valued by the club as we still have a lot of young mids but after another big preseason by the younguns his playing time will start to be chewed up by faster, younger bodies and his experience will have less value as Foley & Deleidio take over the leadership of that area. I expect Connors, Edwards and hopefully Collins to start taking serious game time of him next season and if 1 of Jackson or Polo take another step forward in their career he'll be a goner.
So you agree then he has 1 more year next year, I say he has probably two. Johnson didn't play midfield and we probably wont be seeing him as much in the middle in the future. In my opinion if you ar still playing good footy at 30 yo then there is no reason why you shouldn't keep playing. Plenty of youngsters coming through but they still have to prove themselves.
