And yet that's not the best of him. Many other tries & broad camera angles show his true greatness. Even some of the tries here were too cropped in on camera.

Shaun johnson is and was the king of side steps; his flair, fluidity, deception, field awareness, speed, quickness, and explosiveness were all combined into one. He could step 4 men within a whole line of defense just as was seen against the aussies in 2014 in his prime.

Prior to *2014* ..the man was on *fire!,* even left the great *G.I* swinging at fresh air and *burned* him in a *Test* Kiwi's v Roo's and who could forget how he *stole* the game n dreams v Eng in *2013 W.C Semi* 🍺 Then in *2014,* that *genga sea eagle* landed on him n *broke* his leg. *S.J* will never regain that *blinding speed* and *pure magic* we just witnessed in this master class video! 🍺 Cheers *S.J* for the *brilliance* and *pure wizardry* ovet the years! *KIWI'S HARD!!* 💪🏾🇳🇿

That touch footy awareness... Magic

SJ has the best highlight reel ever!

The best attacking player that NZ has ever produced, possibly the best that rugby league has ever seen. In his prime, he was unstoppable. Yet he was blamed for the warriors failures when he literally carried the team for years.

As great as his step and speed are, I think his passing game is just as good.the way he makes space for others is superb

The beauty of being truly alive.

Iv never seen any footy player lose their speed in such a short amount of time. I’m guessing he put on a bit more weight to make his defensive more effective. Plus the broken leg didn’t help. Still my favourite player to watch. Him and cullen

As a long time warrior and sj fan I still love him and was guttered when he got let go but tbh it was better for him and hope he wins a premiership in the future

I come back to this regularly. He’s a showman, exciting & unexpected when he touches the ball. Sad day when he retires. Legendary

There's very few NRL players in history who could have mowed down the mighty Greg Inglis with that sort of head start. That's true pace

The best in the past 10 years

absolute legend. he will go down as the greatest Warrior

Love SJ so much!!!! Inspiring player, and regardless of what happened at the warriors still my favourite player.

WOW, just wow. On his day, untouchable.

Was probably one of the only NRL players who could win any foot race with a 5-10 meter disadvantage.

Shawn is my most favorite player and sunny

5:47 tedesco has come out on record saying he lost all confidence in himself and speed after johnson did this to him. Took him a few years to recover and find himself which has made him the amazing player he is today!

This guy is literally one of the best to ever play the game. He wont be respected till after hes stopped playing

Nobody beats SJ highlights. Good package to sell to new viewers.

Huge gain for the sharks but also good on him too for making the best move so he can play without the pressures he had at the warriors!!

Crazy, all those amazing highlights and only twice made the top 8 with the Warriors

hes had his up n downs but when shauny is on hes on still in 2023!!!

4:38 watch Maloney try to slow Johnson down .. he knows first hand how fast he was and Johnson still caught up

Awesome highlight package 👍👍👍

What a great video to represent New Zealand's Greatest Half Back. The individual talents are surely on display here. Shaun Johnson should had been poached by an Aussie team many years ago, especially due to how the New Zealand public were mistreating the man. Kiwis couldn't see past the multiple losses the warriors had accumulated, he ultimately was to blame. Among all his individual accomplishments he also made team mates look like they were also on top of there game when they may had been in a cold spot throughout any given season. A player that can elevate the team must have a great height to fall. So he made the move to the sharks had an average 1st season but surely showed his talents there after. Can't wait for NRL2021.

He’s amazing

Look at all that wasted talent in those early Warriors teams ruined by poor coaching and management. Laumape in particular was someone the Warriors should have never let go.
