Time to get Pearce back in a Blues jumper: Johns

0 Comments

Rugby league Immortal and New South Wales legend Andrew Johns says he wants to see Mitchell Pearce back in a sky blue jersey.

“I’d love to see him back,” Sydney Roosters assistant Johns said at the NSWRL season launch.

“He’s in a really good place at the moment.

“He’s at that age between 26 and 30, as a halfback, that’s a light bulb time in your life when you start to understand the game and the game starts to slow down.”

Johns has defended Pearce’s off-field indiscretions saying Pearce was a better person for the experiences.

“He’s in the public eye so everything he does, people see,” Johns added.

“It was a tough time in his life. But I think if you talk to Mitchell, he learnt a lot about himself. He’s bounced back.”
