As fairytale career endings go, you would have to go a long way to find a better one than Shaun Johnson's for the Warriors on Saturday night. Playing against Cronulla - the only other team he represented during his long career - Johnson steered the Wahs to a come-from-behind win in a massive upset. Johnson has been one of the best role models of the modern era, playing a massive role in the growth in popularity of rugby league in New Zealand. After his match-winning role, Johnson was honoured with a haka by Kiwi players from both clubs before walking off the field for the final time with a broad grin on his face.
