Throughout the years, rugby league has seen many young talents rise up and become some of the greatest players the game has ever seen.
However, there have been some that although they looked promising in the beginning failed to live up to the hype.
Don’t forget to comment your thoughts and opinions below.
Shaun Johnson
From one Warrior to another, Shaun Johnson was once built up to be the man to finally lead the Warriors to their first premiership in the NRL. Although there is still time, Johnson has underperformed for the past few seasons, with the Warriors failing to make the finals since his debut season in 2011 where they lost in the grand final against the Sea Eagles.
In the game against the Sea Eagles in Round 20, 2015 Shaun Johnson’s career took a turn for the worse, suffering a season-ending ankle injury.
Many argue that since his return at the beginning of 2016, Johnson has not been the player he once was, underperforming in a Warriors side that he was predicted to lead, and although Johnson still has moments of brilliance he has become, like the Warriors team as a whole very inconsistent.
There is still time for Johnson to turn his career around though and we’ve seen players resurrect their careers before.
