If Lindsay Gillbee hadn't kicked straight to the opposition from full back, we wouldn't even be discussing Johnno's pressure kick.

I love the guy but not captain material.
Ive had the thought of it on my mind since last year and yes he can stand up sometimes but too often he doesnt do it under pressure.
He stepped up when it mattered by putting himself in the position to have those shots. He shouldn't be the player you should be torching ... poor form.
Hopefully, it will burn in every player's guts until next Saturday, and we'll come out breathing fire against the Dawks.
No problem with him missing the last kick, that is footy.
I thought he should have handballed to Acker when he first hit the post. He isn't playing fit and that has compromised him. But he is still a super star and leader....albeit a little less selfless than one might like from time to time.

Im aware he did it against Adelaide in Round 1.. but 4 crucial mistakes in the last Quarter.. 3 of which were shots on goal.
Needs to be able to play under pressure.
I agree, I have no problem with him missing the last shot at goal, that is footy. I was happy Johnno was the one who had to take it, nor was i Unhappy about his second poster. However i was extremely peeved at his first poster. Acker who played his guts out was sitting in the square for quite a while and deserved to be handballed to. If it was Acker that missed that and didn't handball we would be going nuts.No problem with him missing the last kick, that is footy.
