Bio

Cencus Johnston is a lethal ball-carrying prop forward, most at home in the number three shirt. He possesses an impressive turn of pace for such a big player, and has made a massive impact with his ability to break through tackles with Biarritz, Saracens and current club Toulouse. He made his debut for Samoa in 2005 against Australia. He has over 30 caps for Samoa now and featured in all four matches at the 2007 World Cup. Johnston has also played three times for the Pacific Islanders. In the 2010/11 Top 14 Johnston made more clean breaks than any other prop.
