If Shaun Johnson had gone to Storm or Roosters, he would have 10 Dally Ms and 10 championships. He stayed true to the warriors from the get go, he definitely needs to be apart of the warriors organisation in the coaching staff or something because he’s the one of the best #7 in the game! Ever! You ain’t a warriors supporter if you didn’t do a sidestep in school and say his name. All the best in your future endeavours with you & your family. I’m 100% certain he will do well in life. 🐐💪🏼🔥🙏🏻
@@raoulheinrichvonmerten4851he literally got sharks player of the year and lead the league in try assists the year he played without being out due to injury. People seem to forget
He carried a scrub ass team. And people still hate. He is a generational talent. He has more skill than any player on earth. He lacked the foundational ground. He is the equivalent of Dan Carter born in Auckland. You put SJ in a system with room to be himself. He's an immortal. Him playing freely at the 9s is what he can do to your favorite 1 v 1. He's a freak I agree with - @@kiwitomahawk3683
From rural Victoria, I was a die hard AFL fan until I saw this bloke on TV I have religiously watched Warriors games every weekend because of this man. Great creative & tough. All the best in your retirement.
We all live vicariously through our heroes bro. What you did for the game of Rugby League man, those higher highs, those masterclass moments. I will never forget. You, Mr Johnson, are our hero.
It's sad how everyone was bad mouthing this poor dude, I've always loved sj and I honestly wanted him to get the warriors their first title 😢 over 13 yrs I've shouted,cheered,cursed and cried because of sj,2023 was your year bro 2024 maybe your last but ill never forget what you done for us all, the prince of Penrose please take a bow❤ and forgive us salty fans for asking to much all the time, take care sj much love to you and your family you'll always be a legend 🤙🏾🙏
Mate, thank you for all the memories over the years. You inspired a whole generation of new players. Not bad for a Orewa boy. I'm going to miss watching you.
You know you inspired thousands from both sides of the ditch a true Warrior brother thank you Shauny for every memory from the blistering pace to the sickest step and some of the slickest tries ever seen in the game! You a real one brother!
Shaun Johnson is a legend of the warriors . I have followed the warriors since 1995 and I can honestly say the club has never had a half with the talent Johnson’s got . No player has ever had the ( deserved ) hype at the club like him . I have had plenty of Occassion when we were jumping up and down in the lounge , doing high fives and going ballistic because of this mans brilliance .I know for a fact this guy has inspired kids to get off the couch and get down the park . We have watched Johnson turn world class players inside out with his dynamic skills , blistering speed and foot work that only comes along once in a while . I’m glad he has come home to retire and start a new chapter in life . Thanks for the memories SJ.
Magic Johnson. You are a legend. You have inspired so many and we are all so sad to see you go. Take care of yourself and just for the record the whole of NZ knows the Dally M belonged to you last year💙
The mark u have made bro for our younger generation. U will forever be remembered as a warrior. All love brada Soak it up with yur beautiful whanau. Greatful Ps from a Sj fan Kia Ora bro

Thank you for your service SJ, it’s been a pleasure watching you from U20s to Warriors, you’ve had a marvellous career, enjoy the next chapter of your journey and hey, you’ll make a brilliant sports commentator. Warriors forever!!!
The sadness and devastation I got when I heard this news,I've been a fan since 2010,as a ten year old boy who watch him in the under 20s and tried to recreate the side step he mastered as a young lad. It's so heartbreaking but definitely my 🐐 forever and always ❤
Another wonderful half back for the Warriors with the initials SJ. You will be ranked up the top of the all time half’s for NZ and Warriors next to Stacey Jones.❤😎👌🏽
Hey Shaun I could sit and say thank you for the ultimate highs you gave me when you spun your incredible skills and clutch plays But I just want to say thank you for inspiring a whole new generation of young rl players to better on the field and off it You are a stand up man and I wish you the best in your future endeavours brother Thank you!

Should retired at the start of the year, would been a better player, and more help to the team, you carried that burden in the season bit selfish now the warriors outta the top 8, sad to the boys, guarantee you'll carve up now, just wish you done it earlier.......👍
If Shaun Johnson had gone to Storm or Roosters, he would have 10 Dally Ms and 10 championships.

You ain’t a warriors supporter if you didn’t do a sidestep in school and say his name. All the best in your future endeavours with you & your family. I’m 100% certain he will do well in life. 🐐💪🏼🔥🙏🏻
We paid him a lot at the Sharks, not much in return. But that’s how it goes.
@@raoulheinrichvonmerten4851he literally got sharks player of the year and lead the league in try assists the year he played without being out due to injury. People seem to forget
Some of us had left school when Shaun came on the scene... but we still did that side step in the kitchen no doubt!!!!
He carried a scrub ass team. And people still hate. He is a generational talent. He has more skill than any player on earth. He lacked the foundational ground. He is the equivalent of Dan Carter born in Auckland. You put SJ in a system with room to be himself. He's an immortal. Him playing freely at the 9s is what he can do to your favorite 1 v 1.
