Brad Johnson fits bill for Round 1 shock

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

Hope BJ pulls on the boots, he deserves to play it in front of a packed Etihad.

I cant recall, but he is now a few years older and well into his 30's.

The season hopefully is long in length 25 games at least.

Personally I think they are crazy to play him.

Any injury in the achillies and calf area is an older players type injury and tend to linger just like his original injury.

Surely better to be safe than sorry.

let him play in the VFL and take it from there.

He can also do his achilles/calf playing for Willy. He either plays seniors or not at all. I'm pretty sure after 349 games he should be ok to pick up the tempo.

This made me glow somewhat very brightly..

Thought of him not being fit is something my brain will not consume at this point..

I can smell Sunday afternoon already...Bring! It! On!

[LostDoggy]

Dammit dammit dammit!

The first game I can get to due to work is round 3 v Tigers. I was desperately hoping (for my own selfish sake) that they'd wait till then.

Good luck Johnno!

If I was you I'd get a footy fixture, or look on the doggie website. otherwise you'll be going to the wrong games

If Johnno can't play round 1 I think he would wait till round 3 so as to celibrate with a Home crowd

That doesn't sound like the Brad Johnson that has missed a handful of games on the way to 350... I reckon he would play his 350th in Auckland if it was the next game he was fit for.
