Tigers should have Steve Johnson in their sights ... (Age)

[one-eyed]

Richo just said, that despite reports from Jake Niall and Wayne Carey about Richmond offering Stevie Johnson one-year and then an assistant coaching position, to his knowledge that is NOT the case just yet.

Should be farewell for good, we don't need him.

Interesting concept, offering a year on the list and an assistant role after.  Don't mind the idea TBH but I don't think Johnson is coach material.  If I'm looking at the ageing Geelong boys who would be good coaches, I would look at Kelly and Enright.

They may be no worse but certainly no better. especially in the long run. Newman to retire opens a permanent spot for lennon to develop.

Recruiting old players for 1- 2 years would be the absolute worse thing to do

Should be farewell for good, we don't need him.

Maybe you should send the club an email 

[Petey]

Has to be worth considering. Not like any of you watch Geelong every week or know if he's been playing injured. Would have at least one good season left in him

GEELONG great Steve Johnson will play his last game for the Cats against Adelaide on Saturday but is yet to call time on his glittering AFL career.

The 32-year-old, who has played 252 games and kicked 450 goals, said he understood the club's direction and would weigh up his options beyond this year.

"Many people will be asking what I'm doing next year," Johnson said on the club's website.

"Once I've finished this weekend, I'll be looking at the options available to me within the AFL industry."

Dan Richardson was Stevie Johnson's former manager. That's where the media is getting the Richmond link from.

At 32 he needs to realise his best is behind him and take up a coaching and mentoring role at a club. Maybe an assistant forward coach for us?
