Exactly, the temptation is there to kind of 'be greedy' and solve a problem by getting him back into the 17. I think we should really avoid this to be honest, it wasn't too long ago that folk were intimating that one more injury would/should see Chris & his career continuing away from Warrington. As a club, we should look after him, and ensure that he only plays SL when he's ready. I'm sure the medical staff will assess him, advise him & Jimmy and they'll all make a decision but I'd hate for this to end in tears when it was avoidable.

You're not reading Cockers.
I'm not writing Johnson off. Anyone with even a basic knowledge of RL can surely see he's too slow to play in the centres now. He's strong and runs the ball in hard, he should be in the second row or interchange with the forwards from the bench - centre, no way. Saints moved Gilmour from second row to centre and he skinned Johnson the first time he got a run at him.
My worry is that Lowes will play him on the wing instead of Penny next weekend

I did go, got there just as the teams were coming out for the kickoff and didn't hear the lineup, thats what I want to know. I know Riley was fullback and Penny on one wing.
£171 for season ticket, £15 for Saints ticket (got a lift there so no transport costs) and Swinton was the rest for ticket and transport

I agree with most of this, I don't like the idea of Johnson in the three-quarters. He can cover there if needed, but not as one of our starting players.
I do think you are being slightly harsh on him getting skinned the other night, as Gilmour is no slouch.

i'd happily have bridge at centre, i've advocated that for a while , i like his in out and away(one out of JWP's book).
Although, in a sort of perverse fashion i'd also quite like to shove matt king over to right centre, anything to get him away from penny, give him a go on the right and see if he's any good there.
