I think that they are still lacking a genuine alternative to Thurston at 5/8.

Man, I'd love to see Johnson back in the NRL. Straight back into the QLD side, and then we can **** off Costigan and/or Taylor.

Taylor will come good, he's still very young. Costigan does his job well too despite not being spectacular.
If Johnson was to come back into the team, Harrison would need to move onto the bench in place of Cronk or be left out altogether IMO.
But yeah, the Cowboys could have a brilliant team if they get those good signings, apparently they are chasing Sika Manu as well.

Harrison is better than Johnson IMO. Just as good defensively and far superior in attack.

I agree, but if Johnson WAS to come straight back into the team I think Harrison would have more value as an impact player of sorts.
Personally I would leave the team exactly how it is, there is nothing wrong with it.

I think QLD's dominance has been built on amazing defence ahead of attack. I mean how many times have we seen them hold the blues out in our own 20? Surely that frustrates them and lifts us. Johnson adds so much at Origin level IMO. Harrison is a great player, but I think he's sort of wasted at lock. I like him in the back row on the left, linking with Thurston and Inglis, it seems to bring the most out of Inglis.
