We now have a lot of players over 22 on the fringes and with few senior games under their belts. Johnson is one, but also:

Culley

Henderson

Laurie

Moniz-Wakefield

Howes and Sharp are in a similar position but with more games.

Campbell and Heath are special cases as rucks, and Berry is a Category B. (I'm keen to see what Heath can do.)

Culley's the most likely to succeed in my view. I think Moniz-Wakefield will get games although not sold on his disposal. As others have said on here for a long while, I'd be interested to see what Howes can do further up the ground.

Johnson is next on my list. Hard to judge him on such a shambolic season and first in the system for him, but I didn't see much to pin hopes on. If Mihocek can be the solid number one, I'm eager to see what van Rooyen, Kentfield and Jefferson can do as second or third talls. If Johnson's pre-season is too good to ignore, and puts him ahead of those three, and maybe Heath as the second ruck resting forward, so be it.

    The back up ruck comments are utter nonsense.

    Admittedly, van Rooyen is very good at it, but I've seen Johnson on multiple occasions last preseason go head to head against van Rooyen as second rucks in match simulation and get well beaten. Johnson offers nothing in the AFL as far as ruck work goes.

    I spent over 20 years arguing with dolts on this website about players who weren't up to it. Talk about deja vu. I'm trying to think of a player I got wrong...
