One of the most entertaining players of the past decade called time on his incredible NRL career during the week.
That man being the great Shaun Johnson.
It is never enjoyable seeing a legend of the game hang up the boots, but I believe Johnson has absolutely nailed the timing.
There will be many, many things written about the Warriors and Kiwis legend, but today we are going to celebrate the best of a glittering career.
Below are 10 Shaun Johnson career highlights. They're not all going to be a specific game, or a drop goal, or a try.
I could honestly do a top 50 on just specific moments. I watched a highlights package and had 20 without even thinking about it.
Let us know what your favourite SJ highlight has been.
22023 Heroics
Zero disrespect to Kalyn Ponga, but I have no earthly idea how Shaun Johnson didn't capture the 2023 Dally M medal.
Johnson was the best player in the competition and should have banked enough points to clearly beat both Ponga and Hynes, who had good spells.
He had 29 try assists, had his best defensive season ever, and I'd argue he was the most important player in the competition.
No one will ever forget the "Wahs" 2023 season. It was super emotional, chock full of highlights and, simply put, very, very good!
Shaun Johnson was the main reason for that and should have been rewarded with a medal he deserved like few others ever have.
