A posied and professional onballer that is a large contested influence in midfield, Johnson firms as a first-round selection and viable option for any side looking to add depth to their engine room.
An accurate mover of the ball and a threat in the air given his height, Johnson claimed the best afield honours for the Black Swans in Western Australia's win over South Australia in the 2021 AFL Grand Final curtain-raiser.
That showing - which included 21 touches, five clearances and seven tackles - added to a strong second-half of his 2021 campaign to further rise into early draft contention.
Johnson is seen as a similar archetype to Collingwood skipper Scott Pendlebury given his ability to calmly move that ball in traffic.
Playing all three levels with Subiaco in the Colts, Reserves and Seniors, Johnson was able to get a taste of competing at a high level during his 2021 campaign.

"A teenager with a highly professional attitude, Johnson had set himself the goal of being a top-10 draft pick this year as a way of pushing himself, but a quad injury had set him back." - Nathan Schmook
