Toast Welcome to Fremantle Matthew Johnson (pick 21 2021 AFL Draft)

[Vintage]

Looking good

 

[Big Flappy]

There is so much to love about MJ... his lethal right boot, his strength and willingness for the rough and tumble, he has shown a bit of mongrel and doesnt mind burying a bloke, his composure that reminds us of mundy... the fact that west coast took chesser instead of him

 

[Gimme the Fyfe]

We have to make sure guys like MJ, Amiss, JT and Ras stay at the club and keep stacking games together. Got a good feeling about Jye and JT, does anyone know where MJ is with contract talks?

 

[Purple Jesus]

Imagine picking Chesser over Matthew Johnson.

 

[Schauermann]

Really like that he is making the team even with our short injury list. Another year at Peel would feel like a waste of talent after this pick was rated so highly.

 

[EastcoastDocker]

He's surprisingly got a bit of that Fyfe mongrel about him. I can see a few MRP visits over his career. Seems to like the rough stuff which isn't a bad thing

 

[Ausbenito]

Imagine picking Chesser over Matthew Johnson.

Truly amazing decision who actually puts their hand up at West Coast to take responsibility for that?
Very lucky for us he looks a ripper.

 

[Spirit Level]

Will be our best midfielder in a few years.

He already looks like he has played 100 games, composure in traffic and does that thing Mundy used to do where time slows down

 

[Purple Suit]

After watching last nights game, he’s gone past Fyfe.

 

[MadMundy]

Imagine picking anyone over this guy, Johnson is a star in the making.

Imagine picking Chesser over Matthew Johnson.

You mean Chesser over Johnson, JVR and Sheldrick

In fairness to the pie man as they call him , The kid does show some excellent skills just injury prone.

 

[Dockeroo]

Really impressed with how he’s developed this year.
A bit different to Andy and Caleb too in style.
Just pump the games into him now.

 

[Sir Deadly]

Has to get the rising star nom this week! An absolute certainty to be a 300+ gamer for us.

 

[Orange crush]

The kid was fantastic last night … a great pick

yep, sign him up!

 

[Alfonz]

Only 62% TOG as well for his 25 touches. Look out once he gets into the normal 82-88% range.

 

[Purple dynamite]

I was trying to think who he reminds me of.
I understand the Mundy comparisons, but I think the Bont may be a better one.

In fairness injuries can impact any draftee so quite reasonable to prefer one player over another.

Unless they already have known injury concerns....

 

[poshman]

With Ras he adds a lot of size to the smaller brigade which will round us out in finals and games in the wet. If both come off it will go down as possibly our best ever draft.

 

[freo_leo29]

He was even better on replay (atleast first half as that's all I am upto)


This bloke is a genuine gun

 

[Wizard]

I’ve not seen too many guys like him to be able to keep his arms free in the tackle, stay composed and find the RIGHT option in traffic by hand.

He doesn’t take the first option, he takes the BEST option.

Sensationally talented.

Me too was at the game .. his decision making was very good

Doing things he has no right to be doing already. We're in for a massive treat with this kid. Will be our best midfielder once he's played 80 odd games.

 

[Bigger]

The thing about guys like this, who stand up in a tackle and do actually squeeze it out to advantage when they finally decide what's best, is that they get a reputation for it and are allowed a bit more latitude when being tackled. You have to kill him to stop him. And, I think you'll find, he does the killing.
