welcome andrew johns

FOR ST. SMELLINS

04/05/2006NewstalkZBThe International League Board is set to rubber stamp Andrew Johns' participation for the Kiwi team next year.

It is actually the All Golds side to be precise, which in 2007 retraces the steps of the original side 100 years ago.

Back then Australian legend Dally Messenger toured as a guest player, and Johns is set to do the same next year.

He says the biggest highlight will be the chance to play with young Kiwis like Benji Marshall and Sonny Bill Williams.

Johns says the first issue for him is going out on his own terms in a Kangaroo jersey on Friday night.

Johns says he has been granted a wish to play his last Aussie test at home, so intends to make the most of it, because most players do not pick the way they go out.

That's pretty cool isn't it, go out the way you want at home, then do something for only the second time in history, sweet... plus he'd fit in just nicely
